Key Takeaway: Studying Fashion History is more than just studying about European and American Fashion. There are many international countries that have unique cultures, history, and fashion history that can be honored and highlighted.
Objective: Create a 10 look collection based on a nonwestern, historical fashion. Conduct research into a specific non-western Fashion and create a 10 Look Collection based on your research.
Additional Notes: For my Non-Western Country of choice, I chose West Africa to Research (I didn’t pick a specific country in the bounds of that, as West African people gravitate towards wearing similar garments). This collection was made to show respect and appreciation for others’ culture and history, and doesn’t disrespect or appropriate it.
