Abstract or Description

In this workshop 15 participants made a collectively printed textile banner – a blueprint for a De-Fashioned Classroom, that hung at the conference as a template and set of guidelines for future students and educators to follow. The workshop explored methods for teaching fashion that are de-hierarchical and that bring awareness to the materiality of fashion beyond a consumerist conception, by using digitally printed scans and cyanotype overprinting that map and configure expose the fiber and construction of clothes, bringing attention the more than human aspects of fashion.

The Digital Multilouge on Fashion Education hosts a series of critical thinking and making conferences on learning and teaching fashion, in ways that illustrate the diversity and complexity of the field, led by academics from Berlin University of the Arts.
