A Long Goodbye: Alzheimer’s diseases, Grandpa And I I hope to use this theme to arouse more social attention to the elderly. And I also hope that I can express my grandfather's memory in an abstract way and find his connection with the world.
The muse of this collection is Ora Yang who is a young actress from China. You will see she share about her life on the social media. She always can catch the details in life and the beautiful things that we wouldn't usually notice.
With Alzheimer's disease as my theme of 2022SS, I hope that in the design process, I can find the connection between me and grandpa, and the AD Patients.
Stretchy and soft materials, like tulle, knit fabric or organza will be my main fabric i use. I hope to abstractly express the distorted and missing memories of Alzheimer's patients through methods such as pulling and overlapping.
The asymmetrical design is what I expected. Using color combinations with mild contrast can be a way to symbolize happy memories of the past and show warmth and comfort feeling.
