SUIT

For this sewing and pattern-making workshop, each of us designed an original pattern for a one-piece suit that took us through an exploration of the human form. Starting by using collage to explore organic and geometric shapes, we incorporated elements of form and function into the suits to create elaborate, personalized costumes. Suits included christmas tree, cloud, and bison heart inspired forms! We ended the workshop with a fashion show and projected inspiration images onto our blank suits.
