Studio 1: Upcycled Tailored Jacket
We were instructed to create a tailored jacket made out of completely upcycled materials.
My inspiration was the Aqua tower in Chicago. I mainly focused on the structural aspects as well as the fluidity of the shapes in the building. When I saw the building, I initially thought of armor. I incorporated box pleats into the bottom of this jacket (which are detachable) to translate that.
This entire garment is made out of two pairs of men's pants and a trench coat. The jacket is fully lined and the pleats are attached with buttons inside the jacket.
