Flatter Your Body

Flatter Your Body is a womenswear collection of six looks created to suit different body types. The collection reinterprets the corset, a garment that was historically uncomfortable to wear. Each look has a slightly loose silhouette with lacing straps placed around the bust, waist, and hips. Tightening or loosening the straps in selected areas allows the wearer to adjust the shape of the garment. Stripe prints and pleats add an optical illusion that supports the flattering effect.

Color Change is a garment made from temperature-sensitive materials. The fabric changes color when it meets body heat, sunlight or the warmth of another person.

The tape does not react to temperature, so it stays fixed while the surrounding fabric shifts in color. The contrast between the two materials makes hidden changes in warmth easy to see.

The collection responds to an era of information overload, in which people receive more messages each day than one person can absorb. Prints based on neuron and mesh geometry suggest spreading and blurring, so the outside world becomes harder to see and the mind can stay calm. Cotton and nylon mesh are sewn together to form a new texture that echoes the printed pattern. The garments follow standard men's measurements and can be worn as everyday clothing.
