My collection is inspired by the relationship between women and the objects that construct our daily lives. Moreover, how everyday interaction with these objects constructs an image of social self and a wider, socio- political definition of womanhood. Through the lens of sportswear, I aim to reimagine objects societally projected onto woman through association with the domestic space. Moreover, in everyday clothing, women's garments and accessories place far less emphasis on functionality and ease of movement than that designed within menswear. It feels far more like a choice must be made between ‘style’ and comfortability. This dichotomy and tension is a reference point throughout my work. I draw inspiration from objects I photograph in passing and the clash between the clothing and technical accessories of daily commuters. I aim to navigate the role of consumption within the modern-day fashion system by repurposing second-hand homeware, whilst recognising the impact consumption has had on women throughout history. Framed as products, women consume products to align with these ideals- irrespective of our daily needs and physical actions. Drawing on historical dress and interiors from the 19th century woman’s direct replication of the home in her dress to the 1950’s housewife's hosting vs housework apron. There is a tension in the physical sense in terms of how women are expected to dress, and the reality of these choices on the ease of practical movement.
