Description
Summary:'Like A Rhizome Cowboy', the mischievous title of LSAD fashion graduate Erica Flannery's collection, has multiple subversive allusions arising from her exhaustive research on surveillance capitalism and her thesis on cyberfeminism. Flannery has used these concepts creatively for a collection deliberately designed to evade psychological observatioin with what might be described as 'glamouflage'. Her collection, a study in blue, used fused internet cables for stiffening and intricate circular wrapping techniques on baby-blue cotton cord and satin pinstripe suiting, a traditional French menswear fabric.
