Teaching goals (program content, subject description)


Exercise 1 - winter semester
White Shirt Deconstruction - Realisation of 1 design piece
The focus of this project is on draping on the stand and deconstructing of man’s shirt.
The purpose of this exercise is to show the students new design methods and how to work directly on the mannequin - in contrast to their 1st-year assignments.
Project Brief:
The students start with research into 2 designers of their choice who uses draping and deconstruction in their work. They then experiment and explore their own ideas through working with existing garments - shirts on the mannequin. All these experiments are recorded and used for collages - experimental and/or related to the human body. The most successful collage - design is then reconstructed again on the mannequin, the pattern is taken and the shirt is re-made again with correct finishings in repurposed cotton.
The final piece is an experimental and social parameter of dressing is less of importance and not to be defined as a wearable piece of clothing. However, the White Shirt need to have a minimum of 1x collar, 1x pocket, 1x sleeve with a cuff.
Construction of shirt and finishing as well as working on the mannequin are the focus of this project in line and collaboration with the lecturer of construction.
The exercise is linked directly to their pattern cutting class - basic shirt and draping. I would also like to add an illustration element - a collaboration with the drawing class lecturer Agnieszka

Draping and deconstruction on a fashion mannequin
