An international fashion research project exploring the 'craft of use'

Wearing the same piece but with with a fluid attitude of openness and flexibility can find novelty in new places. The garment itself stays the same, but the rules and roles of wearing it are re-interpreted. Use is intensified; resources are saved; individuality is reclaimed.

Three way dress

"This dress can be used in different seasons and occasions 'cos [you] can… wear something under, use as a jacket and it’s also a dress when it’s hot."
