Breaking the Habit

The Smoking Nun

Elizabeth Wilson, Fashion Theorist refers to the individual as an actor, not a gendered individual, just an actor performing under a mode of beliefs creating an identity or illusion of the gendered core.


E Wilson, Adorned in Dreams, 2007


My collection has been inspired by the body as a variable surface, influenced by culture, social surroundings, politics, hierachy, compulsory sexuality and gender.
Researching the interchangable performance of gender i was inspired to create a design collection that was not focused on dressing the 'gendered body' but dressing the body through elements of performance on interchangable gender.

The title of my collection will be 'Breaking the Habit'
