The aim of the master thesis is to present the multidisciplinary brand Garnir2 and the collection We like to stay at home, for which the entire design process from inspiration to the final product is showcased. The brand Garnir2 was created as a response to the increasingly fast-paced and impersonal nature of the fashion industry. The brand's versatility is reflected in its fusion of different design and artistic disciplines; clothing and accessory design, costume design, set design, styling, photography, product and unique design. With this kind of approach to design, we want to bring back the presence of story and the authenticity of product that we feel are needed in the contemporary fashion industry.
The theoretical part focuses on the different roles that dress occupies in everyday life and in the various disciplines of design, as well as on the presentation of existing design examples concerning this subject. It also presents the fashion industry in a time of pandemic, which is extremely desolate, while at the same time its shortcomings have become even more apparent and in need of change for some time. The Rococo period is also described in this section, as it is a very important part of our design identity.
The experimental part presents the previous projects of the brand Garnir2, composed of Gašper Gajšek and Klara Rešetič, as well as the development and finished looks of the latest collection We like to stay at home. The starting point for the collection was the desire to return to the authenticity that childhood represents, and we were especially inspired by our own drawings from childhood, which are often unconcerned by the rules that we take on in the process of growing up, due to the influences of the outside world. The collection recreates children's free creativity using unconventional materials, silhouettes, and handmade techniques.
The result of the master thesis is a unique clothing collection that combines aspects of mentioned design and artistic fields and indicates the direction in which the Garnir2 brand will develop in the future.
