ABOUT
This garment was born from exploring the difference between a pocket and an enclosure. While both provide the same purpose of privacy & secrecy, a pocket is much more of a fabrication than an enclosure. I liked the idea of subverting a traditional element like a cowl to provide functionality in addition to decoration.
ITERATIONS
construction + pattern making
After coming up with the concept, I perfected the pattern including coming up with an easier way to attach the pocket piece to the body of the shirt.
I have constructed and sold iterations of this shirt to friends.
