The Life Wear Project

The Life Wear Project is my first book where I explain my process on designing and making. I broke it down chronologically, starting with historical and fashion research and finishing with how my ideas start to take shape as three dimensional garments shapes. Through that, I talk about what fashion is available on the market for parents and children or look at specific brand such as Petit Bateau who succeed to create clothes for a very broad range of ages. I also show that my inspiration can come from other sources such as films or architecture. It is a very personal vision on what I am designing and how I go about it. Furthermore, the aesthetic of the book should explain the content without having to read the whole text. The way I've placed images, their size and the colour codes are aimed at a quick understanding of my main points. Also, transparent papers with annotations are placed through the book to give quick explanations of key images. The graphics and the different papers used throughout the book are inspired from my drawings, colour and fabric research. This is the first part of three volumes inspired by a daily journal that I am writing as part of my course.
