Re-generation – the generation recreated from the perspective of designer vu thao

Weird! Counter fashion! Weird! Impression! Fascinating substance! Cool! Those are the adjectives that are assigned to Fashion that recreates its boundless appeal. The somewhat contradictory statement about Reconstruction Fashion shows a higher level of experimentation than denial or exclusion.

Re-generation – the generation recreated from the perspective of designer vu thao

Fashion is an ever-evolving industry, that sets trends and defines our lifestyles. However, with the explosion of fast fashion, the environmental impact has become a major concern. According to the United Nations, the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions and is the second-largest consumer of water worldwide. The good news is that sustainable fashion is on the rise everywhere, including in Vietnam.

We can make a difference in a variety of ways. The golden generation of fashion at this time no longer belongs to the generation of “constructors” – who laid the foundation for the heroic millennium of clothing, but “reinventors” – who not only know how to innovate in design but are also very responsible for natural resources.

Thinking about sustainable development, many of us immediately think of eco-friendly materials, but it is easy to forget about recycled materials. Recycled materials may not be of ecological origin but have ecological benefits. It includes materials such as plastic, synthetic or man-made materials. Recycled materials expand the range of sustainable design for designers who don’t have access to eco-friendly materials.

Fashion from recycled materials effectively solves both industrial and domestic waste, from large to small scale, from large factories to processing workshops. Inventory fabrics, rags to non-fashion materials such as shielding materials, packaging materials, plastic bags, and synthetic waste can all become rich sources of raw materials.

The recycling culture of the Vietnamese is very evident through recycling activities. In Vietnam, the names listed below are gradually becoming familiar to consumers. They are representative of a generation of regeneration. Turn waste into an effective resource. Turn limitations into improved strengths.

The Line (DD) is a local brand that has made great use of non-fashion materials to make very fashionable accessories. Unused fonts and tarpaulins are collected by DD to make book bags, backpacks, wallets, and pen boxes… vivid and easy to apply. The waterproof properties of these recycled materials are also an outstanding advantage for DD’s very useful products.

RUBBER, and Archive Sashiko all use the technique of stitching – the Japanese call it sashiko or boro, the Vietnamese call it tch millet, patching to reinforce old cloth and rags into unique materials. The rudimentary subtlety of nostalgia makes the fashion products of this method of RUBBER and Archive Sashiko like canvas paintings tinged with time.

Crazy Lips and KHAAR are two faces that are no strangers to the fashion world in Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh City – where the two designers live, is always appreciated for its outstanding creativity but has limited resources of natural native fabrics. The development of the garment processing system in the country’s largest city has, in some ways, creating an abundant source of recycled materials.

Garbage, on average, can make up 20% to 35% of the total fabric used by each brand. It is a waste if they are thrown in the trash or forgotten in the warehouse. If Moi Dien made a mark with non-gender and street-style costumes, KHAAR flew femininity through carefully crafted outfits. Fabric stitching techniques are supplemented with manual methods such as embroidery, knitting,

A design method that is highly creative and does not stop at recycling materials is “restructuring”. Take advantage of one or more existing product structures to design a new product with a new shape and texture. The makeover of this method brings satisfaction in volume and texture effects as well. Reconstruction depicts the sculptural, spatial geometry of the costume, which is sometimes unjustly accused of being anti-fashion

but actually makes the costume more innovative and attractive. The spirit of restructuring fashion is especially attractive to young people because of its originality and spontaneity, and at the same time meets the needs of people who are interested in sustainable consumption to fulfill their civic responsibility.

Ugly Born (UB) a new independent brand of Hanoi is emerging with the right motto of a restructured fashion name. “Don’t follow the pattern, the pattern, or the standard, just enjoy the free version of each individual.” “Stay original, stay “ugly” as long as it’s who you are” are UB manifesto quotes. Taking advantage of old clothes of themselves, family, and friends and even collected from markets and second-hand shops, UB has enchanted them into cool, strange street clothes, revealing arrogant laughter.

Restructuring both prolongs the life of the product and creates a newness for the product itself. The reconstructed design makes us look at familiar or abandoned things with an attitude of both respect and admiration. It can be promoted as a form of contemporary art. Vu Ta Linh is probably the designer who has portrayed this feature of restructuring.

Linh knows how to use her crafting skills to create interesting layers of an existing product. A cobweb-like membrane covering an oversized vest or unused clothing is removed, ground, torn, crumpled, then sewn, sewn, and put on top of each other to create a fashionable work of art. incomparable.

Renewable fashion is no longer a trend; it is a movement that focuses on creating socially responsible products, aiming to reduce resource extraction, waste, and emissions in the production process. It is a movement towards a better future for the planet and people.

Recycling and restructuring in fashion design are also ways we are rethinking, and re-introducing some of the concepts that once existed, and were validated but are no longer relevant for the moment. consumer crisis, the climate crisis. It is a necessary step backward so that we can move forward
