“In 1919, Thayaht designed The TuTa, which he called “the most innovative, futuristic garment ever produced in the history of Italian fashion” (wikipedia)
the challenge: can you pattern a zero-waste overall AND make it chic?
“I do like the idea of all of us wearing rectangles as proposed by ljh. Kind of like what the Russian constructivists and Thayaht (Italian futurist) proposed, no? Totalitarian dress codes – bring it on! Because, let’s face it, fashion hasn’t offered much personal choice for a long time, if ever (read Sustainable Fashion and Textiles: Design Journeys); time to get honest and decisive about it, and legislate!”
-Timo Rissanen in his zero-waste-fashion blog
