Background
Some garments incorporate sweet memories, others make us uncomfortable in our own body – not least when that body has changed with age.
Till death do us part
The designer has based her project on the discarded garments from her mother's wardrobe in order to create a novel collection founded on the clothes that are no longer being used. The collection is meant to offer the woman over 50 mental well-being and self-satisfaction, while also prolonging the life of the garments. By reusing the clothes, the designer simultaneously takes on the fashion industry's enormous overproduction and the consumption of global resources.
