DARDANA DJANTIO ETCHIKE BA FASHION YEAR 3 HERIOT WATT UNIVERSITY
I would like to say: History of the past, tradition and culture, are the keys points that allow me to open my mind and be receptive to trade and diversity. In my research, I take inspiration deep into the past, from different cultures around the world and different styles to make a mix and create a multicultural dramatic style. I put an accent in my work on shapes and visual impact inspired by the interpretation of my research. Fascinated by the structures and textures, I think, the experimentation and the manipulation of materials in order to create the news form are the motor of the originality. My work focuses on the techniques of patchwork, by combination of diverse materials, strong colors and fabrics, and by the creation of structures and textures with various materials, in order to end in an abstract visual, and as well as to create a hybrid design, who is a combination of my different interpretations according to my inspiration. Outside the framework of the ordinary, my satisfaction lies in the non-convention and the madness of the risk. The most my design challenge myself, the most I am excited about. I like to explore new and I will have no hesitation for the next to use various natural material such as sand, stones, glasses, grass, wood and many others... this dimension allows to stir up my euphoria during my work and preserve my artistic dimension and my dramatic originality... Each shape, each object and color is the opportunity of a new experimentation that must take life. Movement, shapes, manipulation of color, combined with the bodily forms is for me the essential of a unique and elegant style. The human body is the main attraction of the fashion, and it would be for me, an Abomination to completely conceal, and to hide this wonder of movement and expression. It comes here the art to cloak all by revealing. My motto is a freedom, abstract, drama, perfection and sophistication. Dardana

TURBULENCE FASHION THEORY INTO PRACTICE FASHION THEORY INTO MANUFACTURE BA FASHION YEAR 3 : SEMESTER 1 CODE : E19FT / E19FM HERIOT WATT UNIVERSITY
TURBULENCE SPING/SUMMER 17
A boost of adrenaline consumes my senses at the sight of Aggregation, this piece of art of Chun Kwang Young, consisting of this set of cracks, created by the entanglement of these small triangular packets of Hanji who disturb my vision, putting my mind in turmoil and my imagination in boiling... I am transported in time, the difficult history of Korea, I imagine the Korean woman, feminine and oppressed, revealed breasts despite her outfit, she is pretty familiar in my mind with my Bantu women ancestor... My inspiration is born for this season. In her extreme femininity mastered and combined by an extravagant desire for luxury, the women of the spring/summer 17 feels free, strong, slightly mad and quite provocative. She had definitely broken the conventions of her tradition despite her journey through the time. She is free from repression, and an exile of the standard. Inspired by her culture, she is a contrarian who breaks the pre-established rules, in order to live her time. She decides... It is necessary... She is ready for the future. Her slender silhouette stand out for her Majesty to avant-garde look, complete with structural details relating to an abstract painting. More than ever with her latex pipe, her legendary little jacket, and her Cape define her brand presence. She knows how to play with volumes and proportions in order to redefine her silhouette without adding weight, because her historical art to wrap her loincloth has evolved into a more refined and minimalist cut. Her shoulders are structured, her waist is high, emphasised and sometimes slightly discovery. She unveiled chastely her shoulder and her arms and her chest discovered in the past has become her mystery of her femininity. Henceforth, she realized that the art of seduction lies in the creation of the illusion. Her tone cocktail moves in nature, such a dove which takes its night flight, during an erupting volcano, in this contrast ranging from debris of ash and coal, illuminated by a burning flame... Mindful of her comfort, and mistress of her style, she opted for natural flax fibres, combinations of silk and taffetas, of the delicacy of the cotton and the luminous glow of latex. Now, that woman is ready to disrupt the world.
