The Edge
The raw edge
of any material is something that is overlooked, as the first thought when
creating a textile/fashion piece is “how could I finish this edge?” Ask
yourself what if the raw edge was already finished. This brief is an
exploration of this.
The aim is
to select a small range of materials with contrasting edges and experiment with
them. Explore the structure of the chosen materials, think about manipulating
the materials and seeing how the contrasting fabrics act when manipulated. Think
about clean edges, cutting, tearing, and flexibility. Explore different weights
and types of materials (natural, man-made).
The aims:
-
To
create a finished piece or set of resolved samples
-
Show
an understanding and exploration of material qualities
