RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Research has been a crucial component for the creation of the concept. I looked firstly at animal characteristics. Not all animals have an attractive impact on us, so it was important also to match human likes. Then, I focused on action suits. It was important to find the right combination between the animal and the suit to enphasise a specific human behavior. The design was not the deciding factor for me, but rather my motivation behind it - to create a collection with an ispirational meaning.
CHALLENGE: The challenging moment was to find the right match between the characteristics of the animal, and the suit. Not all animals have a positive impact on us, so it was important to discover which animals we consider 'cute' to be humanised. Moreover, suits are related to a specific action, and their own characteristics had to match a specific behaviour of the animal associated.
