    Description of Activity

    Starting from a talk focusing on the theory of fashion practice in the
    expanded field to practical experimentation, this talk/workshop promotes
    the exploration of notions of memory and fashion. A practical laboratory of
    interdisciplinary nature that engages with the development of processes of
    experimental composition of garments. Introduction to innovative materials
    to the fashion discipline, with the use of materials such as latex and
    plaster in the production of experimental clothing. Through the use of the
    age-old tradition of plaster moulds and the use of natural latex reproducing
    ‘found items’ from their original form into a memory - as a disruptive voice
    regarding productivity and functionality in design methods.
