PERIOD.

A knitted costume with the intent to initiate a conversation about the issues of imposed shame and taboo on the female body.

BA Textile Design

In the six-week specialisation in knitwear design, the aim was to create an outfit on the subject of heritage using the electronic knitting machine. I explored the theme of femininity, female symbolism and patriarchal historiography and took inspiration from Alexander McQueen and Rei Kawakubo.
