| − | '''WHY'''
| |
| − | I picked this costume because I am interested in Asian culture and there history and crafts.
| |
| − | This costume fascinated me because I found out that in the time this costume is made there was a emigration stream of Chinese people coming to Indonesia.
| |
| − | Because of this mingle the traditional crafts of both lands merged together. Like Chinese embroidery with Indonesian batik.
| |
| − | Also all the pictures/ illustrations have a meaning and they value this a lot and they tell a sort of story.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is something I like in a costume or garment, you can tell a story by this and in my own work I use a lot of prints.
| |
| − | I also wanted to link it with my Major Fashion design so I can discover new crafts and continue with my development in the major.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To make a replica of the wedding costume I want to do more research about the different illustations and meanings of these, discover more about the Chinese/Indonesian history and techniques used in this time.
| |
| − | After this desk research I want to start with material experiments to replicate the costume using modern day crafts or digital techniques and give the costume a new look.
