The Suit Version 2020

MA Design for Planet, Fashion and Textile Design

HVAD? Det historiske design i en opgraderet udgave til den moderne gentleman og hans hverdag.

HVORDAN? Designeren har fordybet sig i jakkesættets flere hundrede år gamle historie, hvor det har rødder i arbejder- og landbefolkningens funktionelle mandedragt. I dag har den moderne mand brug for at kunne cykle, bære nøgler, pung og mobil – og måske henover årene lægge sig lidt ud. Alt det tager designet højde for med diskrete læg og ekstra vidde.

HVORFOR? Samarbejdspartnerens målgruppe lægger vægt på de signaler, der ligger i det klassiske jakkesæt – professionalisme og klassisk stil. Derfor er det kun funktionaliteten, der har ændret sig radikalt i dette design.

WHAT? The historical design in an upgraded version for the modern gentleman and his every day life.

HOW? The designer has immersed herself in the centuries-old history of the suit, which has its roots in the functional men’s outfit of the working and rural population. Today, the modern gentleman needs to be able to cycle, carry keys, a wallet and a mobile – and perhaps, over the years, even expand his waistline a little. The design takes all these factors into account with discrete pleats and extra width.

WHY? The partner's target group emphasises the signals that the classic suit sends – professionalism and classic style. Therefore, only the functionality of this design has changed radically.
