Fashion Design Studio 6: Deathliness, Decay & Decorum: Quote of the Day Part I

About this class (from the brief):

"By delving into one of the largest social taboos, students will engage directly with end of life themes, and close the cycle of life. Whilst fashion and ritual are an integral part of our living existence, this studio investigates the role of fashion at the end of life and beyond.
When a person dies and their body is prepared for burial or cremation, they are generally dressed in a textile fabric. This fabric literally and symbolically becomes a part of the body as it decomposes. Transformational processes including decomposition, dissolving and reincarnation will be explored in order to create a series of garments that explore the relationship between garment and [deceased] body."
