| dc.description.abstract | Pre-industrial fashion is a treasure trove of design inspiration. Working class women’s fashion is seldom referenced, but their clothing was highly functional and intended to last— both of which are sought-after qualities in modern day clothing. I developed a pair of overalls intended for manual labor, referencing ingenius solutions from working class historical fashion. In a culture that continues to produce lower quality clothing every year, it is incredibly important that people working manual and technical jobs have long-lasting, durable clothing. I designed, prototyped, user tested, prototyped again, and created a garment that is meant to fit well, make the user feel confident and stylish, and support them on the go—whether they’re a homemaker, ceramicist, or woodworker. | en_US |
