Radical Fashion Exercises

Beschrijving

Over one hundred tried, tested, and speculative exercises
that expand the way we look at fashion, how we are part of its
system, and how we can practice fashion otherwise.
Radical Fashion Exercises contains a copious collection of
bottom-up activities, prompts, and workshops designed by
contributors (from all around the globe), who explore fashion
in an extended field. Designers, curators, artists, educators,
fashion practitioners, DIY home sewers, students, and other
creatives responded to the book’s open call with contributions
that challenge how to practice fashion and reflect on its systems,
politics and economics. The exercises collected in this
book embrace interdisciplinarity, experimentation, and aesthetics
and widen fashion’s horizons as a medium for expression,
embodiment and sociality.
Radical Fashion Exercises assembles methods for learning
and practicing fashion in meaningful, radical and responsible
ways. The book is an inspiring tool for design students, designers,
writers, and practitioners of diverse disciplines to challenge
fashion as a commodity and polluting structure in these
times of uncertainty and upheaval.
