Construction and Deconstruction: A Fashion Film

I came across this short fashion film by Sophie Kennedy with her take on construction and deconstruction. It shows her creating an extravagant outfit from scratch then taking it apart in the same way.

Deconstruction Of The Jeans and The Jacket

I decided to create two videos showcasing the deconstruction of the jeans and the jacket. They show the garments laid out in pieces after being completely taken apart. I found it so interesting seeing how many pieces go into each garment after laying them out over the table. Considering each garment was only small originally, each one almost covered a four metre table. You can see as well all the 'hidden' parts that went into each garment, for example the lining of the pockets and interfacing around the edges of the jacket.

Coach Fall 2015 Collection

The Coach Fall 2015 collection features a wide range of fastenings on their jackets including toggles, zips, double breasted buttons and single rows of buttons. The fabrics used in the entire collection vary greatly also, from furs to wool to leather. A monochrome colour palette mainly features but the fabric weight differs, with both sheer and heavy fabrics used. Deep pockets feature on almost every garment, with and without flaps and button detailing.
