EMPHASIZING THE UNWANTED : Exploring the use of unwanted defects as desirable qualities of a collection.Wiklund, Josefin January 2020 (has links)
This work focuses on exploring the early stage of garment production: where prototypes are regarded as ”incomplete” in relation to the desired result. Early prototypes carry unforeseen elements that are regarded as defects rather than desirable qualities, and are subsequently edited, adjusted and iterated into new prototypes until the desired result has been reached. This work wishes to emphasize the unforeseen elements present in the early prototypes, instead of merely disregarding them as undesirable qualities. By emphasizing common elements that are usually regarded as defects, this result of this project became a commercial yet experimental collection. I.e., the garments arguably kept their core commercial characteristics, making it easy for the observer to recognize and categorize the garments. However, upon a closer inspection, the defects arguably infused each respective garment with an appealing and interesting aesthetic. What this project has shown is that defects can be emphasized into desirable qualities, and that defects pose vast foundations for further exploration, ultimately challenging the industry’s current perception of defects.
