| Description: | For IFFTI 2025, Caroline Stevenson and Ruby Hoette presented a workshop - Fashion Text as Material - as part of their collaborative project, Modus. This workshop drew attention to the location of theory in practice-based fashion education contributing to the growing recognition of the productive relationship between theory and practice in fashion (Gaugele and Titton, 2022). Workshop participants were provided with photocopied pages from a series of 'fashion texts' and were invited to use them to create new blueprints for fashion practice. We started by asking participants to choose one page from their photocopies, and highlight all of the verbs in the text. We read out the verbs and discussed how different fashion texts create different kinds of calls to action. Then, participants were invited to select sentences, words and phrases from their photocopies and create new texts, explaining their own definitions of fashion. |
