The Engineered Garments Fall/Winter 2023 collection draws inspiration from the classic American heavy-duty ivy style. In addition to the textile artwork, designs for bandanas and hoodies were also created.
The large-sized bandana reinterprets everyday urban scenes, wild animals, and nostalgic outdoor visuals in a modern way. It employs pop art techniques influenced by American contemporary art, particularly the collage prints of Robert Rauschenberg.
In addition to serving as a bandana, I designed the artwork to present a unique style that blends urban and wildlife elements. This was achieved through mixed media expressions, including block prints, graffiti-style stencils, and hand drawings.
