Elastic bands and pullable straps make the transformation possible. Pulling the necktie releases the connection between sections and lets the garment drape, which alters the design completely. Escape is made with zero waste pattern cutting, and fabric waste is kept below five percent. The intent is to support psychological detachment after working hours.

These objects examine the visual aspect, tactility, materiality, living motion and the architectonics of textiles. The colours are low in intensity and achromatic, except reds that pulsate within this pale spectrum.

Temperature

Color Change is a garment made from temperature-sensitive materials. The fabric changes color when it meets body heat, sunlight or the warmth of another person. Close contact such as a hug therefore becomes visible on the surface of the clothing. The pattern is cut to highlight the structural lines of the garment, and these lines are closed with adhesive tape. The tape does not react to temperature, so it stays fixed while the surrounding fabric shifts in color. The contrast between the two materials makes hidden changes in warmth easy to see.
