Spring summer 2014
This project represents a thoughtful approach to sustainable fashion, focusing on the creation of garments that foster an empathetic and lasting relationship between the user and the clothing. At the heart of this project is the principle of empathetic design, which emphasizes active listening and a design process centered on people.
The designer engaged closely with end-users, ensuring their voices and needs were integral to the creative process. Each piece in the collection reflects the unique stories, preferences, and lifestyles of its future owners, creating a personal connection that extends beyond mere functionality.
Environmental and social responsibility were prioritized in every aspect of the project. Textile materials and techniques that minimize environmental impact were carefully selected, choosing sustainable, ethically sourced, and durable fabrics. Material were selected with a commitment to reducing the ecological footprint and supporting fair labor practices.
The resulting collection not only meets the aesthetic and functional needs of the wearer but also embodies a sustainable ethos. It serves as a testament to the power of empathetic design, where fashion becomes a meaningful and enduring part of the user’s life.
