The aim was to recycle old clothes however clothes which specifically had a Fabrucation such as sequins, clothes with clever seams, pockets, work wear, sportswear, granny, prints, knitwear, denim & tailored suits. Clothes in which I was able to get my hands on were then placed on a mannequin/ tailors dummy however not the way original item of clothing was meant to be worn, as I am a textiles based person my aim was to manipulate textures using what I had, simply placing the garments in different forms on the mannequin proved a battle as I couldn't quite manipulate texture in that way.
In turn I began to cut along the seams of the items of clothing I had brought in giving me a smaller scale to work with and a starting point into the project.
