Wrap me up !

I believe that getting dressed is a form of play. It should not be limited by gender or body shape — anyone should be able to transform themselves freely and enjoy the act of dressing. In “Wrap me up!”, I reference clothing traditions that wrap and tie around the body, such as kimono, sumo belts, and ancient Greek garments, to create clothing that allows the wearer to style themselves in their own way.

 

The garments are fully size-free. The silhouette changes depending on how the fabric is wrapped and tied, giving total styling agency to the wearer and turning dressing itself into play. With no single correct way to wear it, the work celebrates the diversity of bodies and the joy of self-expression.

 

The outfit consists of knit pants that expand up to approximately four meters at the waist and two long knitted panels intended to wrap freely around the upper body. All pieces are made from leftover industrial sewing threads collected from various places, reflecting the environmental awareness emphasized in the FFP lectures and a commitment to minimizing waste in the making process.
