Cable Dress

I tell my story through clothes.Inspired by the Netflix series “Cable Girls” and Thomas Myers’ book “Anatomy Trains,” this unique dress weaves together the concepts of love, communication and connection . Crafted using the makrome technique, the dress emerged from 250 meters of found telephone cable. Concealed within each loop are details symbolizing the intricacies of communication and the touch of technology. True communication, much like the weaving of these waste telephone cables, brings together individual elements to form a strong connection feeling, reflecting a power that exists everywhere with in the universe.

May fashion show us mercy

Monarchy is historically a form of governance where power is centralized in one person or family. Leadership in this system is often regarded as a hereditary right, typically passed down through inheritance.

Fashion consumption, on the other hand, can have various influences on society. While fashion can be a tool for individuals to express their styles and identities, it can also lead people into a constant cycle of changing trends, contributing to a specific consumerist pattern.

Monarchy and fashion consumption can similarly influence people’s perceptions and behaviors. Both require accepting the authority of a particular style or governance. Monarchy roots leadership within a specific family, while fashion consumption gathers people under the influence of certain brands or trends.

However, both systems often face criticism. Monarchy can conflict with democratic values and be seen as contrary to the principle of equality. Similarly, fashion consumption is criticized for issues like excessive consumerism and sustainability concerns.

Understanding the compassion of these systems entails a balanced evaluation of their beauties and potential harms. Both can deeply impact people’s lives, but how they are directed and balanced is crucial.”
