Fashion as a tool to cope with grief

With an interdisciplinary background in both fashion and play, the designer explores how the body interacts with fabric and how garments affect emotions. When we experience shame, sadness, or boredom we rarely carry ourselves in erect posture. This project explores how this link between body posture and emotions might be used in fashion as an aid in transforming emotions. Can the shape of a garment affect the wearer to proximate awareness and cope with mourning?
