“Plié” is a modular clothing system that adapts to various weathers, activities, and needs. The system consists of a jacket, a pair of trousers, a bag, and a hat.
The core of my intention with Plié lies in providing an approachable solution to what drives the average person to continuously buy clothes. It encourages a shift in the behaviours and habits that are anchored within our consumption. Conveying multiple surveys, I identified problematics that ultimately informed the key pillars defining the clothing system. A need for versatility, seeking renewal in outfits. Adaptability to various occasions, whether this be weather or activity-related, and pushing an ability to share items between individuals forward.
These are directly implemented in the various items of clothing, and differentiated into a 3-colour snap system. The snaps are both a fastening method and an instructional guide.
