1700 UTC - fashion/synthesis | |
I've recently started work on my first non-computer-related post - | |
a treatise on my framework for approaching fashion, derived from | |
perspectives on techwear and sustainable clothing. While I knew there's | |
some inherent contradiction, I didn't anticipate just how much cognitive | |
dissonance I'd be ironing out in the process. Techwear ("true" techwear- | |
I'll get into that later) is a luxury fashion space, and writing on it | |
in a manner divorced from consumerism is, in some ways, difficult. Some | |
sections I've written feel a bit too much like marketing copy. There is, | |
however, a brilliant underlying philosophy to its design, and I'm making | |
progress toward expressing it in this way I've been looking for. | |
I'm excited to present this as something cohesive. | |
