SUSTAINABILITY and FUNCTION
Cowboy and military uniforms are very focused on function. Therefore, I designed several items, including belt, removable buckles in different ways, hang -fixed claw clasp with D shape ring, military magazine bag and apron. Reflective piping on these items also increases the safety of clothing. In terms of sustainability, in addition to using leather that is hard to damage, I think clothing should have a variety of changes to lengthen the aesthetic age limit hence emphasize assembly and dismantling. In response to the 19th century desert and present climate, twill and inner fleece knitted fabrics can allow wearers have more choice in staying warm. Also, by mixing and matching freely, it reflects me a thought from movie The Virginia that "no absolute right and wrong, just follow values and beliefs in the heart." Furthermore, the bag can directly buckle on belt on the clothing hopes to reduce the excess design, expanding the functionality of the clothing body. Meanwhile, it echoes Virginia’s direct and clean nature.
