Inspiration

Throughout high school, making clothes has been a really big hobby for me, with knitting, sewing, and thrifting being the aspects I enjoy the most. I wanted this to be an homage to crafting and clothesmaking that celebrates all three interests with a suit that was made entirely using duck tape, kitchen scissors, and some sewing and knitting needles. The blazer, trousers, and briefcase are all oversized and made of patchwork, meant to seem thrifty and secondhand. They all have big black stitches on them, meant to represent my interest in sewing. Underneath all of this, I am wearing a light blue hand knitted vest, made by ripping and folding several rolls of duck tape into yarn and knitting them.
