Design of a women’s collection with inspiration of Spanish culture of bullfighters

Navdih in tema magistrske naloge Oblikovanje ženske kolekcije z inspiracijo v španski kulturi bikoborbe izhajata iz moje želje po oplemenitenju ulične mode z detajli visoke mode. Skušala sem prikazati povezavo med tradicionalnim in modernim v sodobni modi. Največji izziv pri oblikovanju kolekcije je bil izogniti se oblačilom, ki spominjajo na kostume, ter oblikovati sodobna modna oblačila, ki izhajajo iz tradicionalnih oblačil španskih toreadorjev. Cilj kolekcije ready-to-wear za jesen/zimo 2019/20 je vzpostavitev komunikacije med bogato preteklostjo ter tradicionalnim načinom izdelovanja oblačil in sodobno modo v stilu maksimalizma z namenom v času hitre mode in hiperprodukcije ponuditi avtentičnost.Inspiration for my Master’s Thesis “Design of woman collection with inspiration in Spanish culture of bullfighting” stems from my wish to incorporate high fashion elements into street fashion. On top of that, my aim was to find a connection between the traditional and the modern. Matador suit is often used in modern culture, costumography, as well as in costume balls around the world, for its authentic and unique appearance. The biggest challenge while designing pieces for this collection was to avoid associating them with that recognizable form. The goal for my ready-to-wear fall/winter 2019/20 collection was in creating a new way of communication between the rich past and the traditional ways of clothes design. It offers a sense of escapism, maximalism and treats a garment as an antique in this age of fast fashion and hyper-production
