Afgangsprojekt

Mens den korsetterede dragt opfattes som feminin og begrænsende, opfattes habitten som maskulin. Men hvorfor er femininitet begrænsning og begrænsning feminint? Og hvorfor er maskulinitet frigørende og frigørelse maskulin?

Sådan spørger modedesigneren i sit projekt, der teknisk arbejder med indsnøring som en måde at formgive tøjet på. Idémæssigt udforsker projektet kvindefrigørelse og kvindeundertrykkelse gennem en undersøgelse af symbolsk begrænsende og frigørende beklædning.

Afgangsprojekt

While the corseted outfit is perceived as feminine and restrictive, the suit is perceived as masculine. But why does femininity equal limitation and limitation equal femininity? And why is masculinity liberating and liberation masculine?

That is the question the fashion designer asks in her project, which is technically focused on tight lacing as a way of shaping clothes. Conceptually, the project explores women's liberation and women's oppression through an investigation of symbolically limiting and liberating clothing.
