- Plan how to reconstruct it into something functional
- Document your process.
- Sketches of what you want it to be
- List of materials needed
Due to the majority of the umbrella’s material being fabric, our group decided it would be most effective to reconstruct the umbrella into a dress. Our dress is a basic slip body con dress, but with the addition of the rest of the mechanics from the umbrella. The mechanics will make the dress more of an avant-garde, sculptural dress including moveable and functional features.
List of materials:
-umbrella synthetic fabric
-metal mechanics
-umbrella handle
-sewing thread
-wire
