In response to the disposable nature of today's fashion industry, I designed a collection of zero-waste mesh panels that can be draped, cinched, and tied around the body. They draw upon a sense of nostalgia through the process of playing dress-ups, apparent through the use of stretch mesh and gathering inspired by fairy costumes and the process of wrapping and tying oversized clothes around myself. This approach allows the pieces to stretch, mould and adapt to different bodies and evolve with the wearer reducing the amount we need to buy.
