Tekst

Tøjstørrelser kan være en kilde til frustration og negative følelser om ikke at være ’rigtig’. For selvom man på papiret har de mål, der passer til størrelsen, er det ikke sikkert, at tøjet passer ret godt, eller overhovedet klæder bæreren. Omvendt har onesize-tøj et negativt ry for at være uklædeligt. Det vil designeren, med vejledning fra tøjdesigneren Sofia Ilmonen, lave om på med sin kollektion af onesize-tøj til kvinder, hvor tøjet formes ved at rykke og binde det, så det passer den enkeltes krop – og dermed bryder med størrelsestyranniet.

Clothing sizes can be a source of frustration and negative feelings about not being 'right'. For even though on paper a person has the measurements that fit the size, it is far from certain that the clothes fit very well, or even suit the wearer. Conversely, one-size-fits-all clothing has a negative reputation for being unbecoming. Under the guidance of clothing designer Sofia Ilmonen, the designer is determined to change this with her collection of one-size-fits-all clothes for women. Here the clothes are shaped by pulling and tying them so that they fit the individual’s body – thus breaking with the tyranny of size.
