CRAFTS 3309 - Body Wear Construction

Institution:

Temple University

Subject:

Description:

This course focuses on the structure and construction of body wear. Body wear has the ability to change the wearer into another being. It expresses bold emotion and explosive creativity. Students will be encouraged to regard the human body itself as the object to “wear” and design innovative creations to address this topic. All cultures tap into power, real or imagined, of dress. After the mid-20th century, society entered into a mass consumption and production of garments and clothing. Students will be encouraged to break from the trend of universal uniformity and think beyond the idea that only fabric can be used to make garments.
