Breaking the Cocoon

Student: Xiaotong Zhao
Course: DS 253 pattern-making
Program: TAD, Year 2




This garment is made out of winter suiting fabric and micro suede. The inspiration came from the process of butterfly's breaking the cocoon. I tried to make a garment that represents the similar process when girl is turning into a woman. So neutral color and tailored silhouette  take the place of colorful and youthful design details.
