Abstract
A Necessidade de criar acessórios que completam coerentemente a coleção com base em upcycling. Os acessórios apresentam um papel crucial ao complementar e expandir a narrativa de uma coleção de moda, e quando se trata de um projeto de final de curso funcionam como um seguimento das ideias e conceitos adicionando camadas ao storytelling da coleção.
O problema central que levou à criação deste projeto de acessórios é a falta de coesão entre a roupa e os acessórios em coleções de moda sustentáveis, especialmente em projetos que tem como tema principal o upcycling. Sendo que a coleção tem como tema principal o reaproveitamento de materiais e o tema de “regresso às aulas”, surgiu a necessidade de criar acessórios que não só complementassem as peças de vestuário, mas também estivessem em coerência com o conceito central da coleção de forma inovadora e sustentável.
Na maioria das vezes os acessórios das coleções são apenas um tema secundário, proveniente deste tipo de pensamento pode resultar uma falta de coerência onde os acessórios não refletem os princípios e temas das peças de roupa e acabam por ter um aspeto desconectado e sem qualquer valor visual. Este é o problema que a criação de malas para a coleção de fim de curso vem resolver.
A procura de materiais é uma fase muito importante do projeto, estes materiais poderão ser recolhidos em lojas de segunda mão, empresas de recolha de roupa ou de pessoas que consigam despender destes materiais que já não usam mais.
Com o aumento da conscientização sobre a sustentabilidade, o upcycling tem adquirido importância, desta forma ao explorar a ideia de que sapatos usados podem ser transformados em novos acessórios pode gerar inspiração para a criação de produtos ecologicamente responsáveis E não há nada melhor do que uma coleção de malas para complementar uma coleção de regresso às aulas.
Destacando a ideia de que cada passo que damos no passado constrói o nosso futuro, o projeto dá uma nova vida a materiais descartados, conectando a nostalgia de memórias escolares com um futuro sustentável. A transformação de sapatos em malas simboliza essa mesma transição ao unir o caminho anteriormente percorrido com as novas possibilidades que a coleção sugere.
Abstract: The need to create accessories that coherently complete the collection based on upcycling. Accessories play a crucial role in complementing and expanding the narrative of a fashion collection, and when it comes to an end-of-course project, they act as a follow-up to the ideas and concepts, adding layers to the collection's storytelling. The central problem that led to the creation of this accessories project is the lack of cohesion between clothing and accessories in sustainable fashion collections, especially in projects whose main theme is upcycling. Since the collection's main theme is the reuse of materials and the “back to school” theme, the need arose to create accessories that not only complemented the garments, but were also consistent with the collection's central concept in an innovative and sustainable way. Most of the time, accessories in collections are just a secondary theme, and this kind of thinking can result in a lack of coherence where the accessories don't reflect the principles and themes of the garments and end up looking disconnected and without any visual value. This is the problem that creating bags for the end-of-term collection solves. The search for materials is a very important phase of the project. These materials can be collected from second-hand stores, clothing collection companies or from people who are able to afford these materials that they no longer use. With increased awareness of sustainability, upcycling has become more important, so exploring the idea that used shoes can be transformed into new accessories can generate inspiration for the creation of ecologically responsible products. And there's nothing better than a collection of bags to complement a back-to-school collection. Highlighting the idea that every step we take in the past builds our future, the project gives new life to discarded materials, connecting the nostalgia of school memories with a sustainable future. The transformation of shoes into suitcases symbolizes this same transition by uniting the path previously travelled with the new possibilities that the collection suggests.
