| Summary: | Morphosis is about the transformation of oneself. Into a beautiful self, in the flick of a finger. It is meant to portray the armour we wear every day as we get ready to leave the house and face our battles.
In this project, I discover the art of dressing and undressing, transforming these everyday actions into experiences that can be effortlessly accomplished in a single motion. Exploring the creation of a fastening mechanism that is designed to secure garments with ease. The vision extends beyond mere functionality; it's about crafting a collection where every piece seems to embody the essence of change and transformation just as the morphing of a butterfly.
The motifs of the butterfly are used. Representing the transformation and the morphing of the butterfly from its beginning to its end, a short but repetitive cycle, mimicking the experiences in life.
The garments are constructed in a manner such that they may be worn with ease, with the aid of the magnetic buttons designed for this collection. It is reminiscent of the magical transformations often seen in children's shows — characters turning into magical beings like fairies, these clothes offer a similar sense of enchantment in real life. A transformation into something greater than. |
