Design Description
‘WOODEN IT BE NICE’ if people understood what fast fashion is doing to our environment. If everyone acted for the good of the globe. If we all worked harder to upcycle what we already have. For our dress our main material was Veneer Wood. We used many different techniques such as weaving on the bodice of the dress. For the skirt, we found that the Veneer wood curled naturally so we layered them on top of each other forming the design. Our headpiece and shoes were inspired by parallel practices in architecture and fashion creating a sculptured look.
