Introduction

Chanel Samurai

“It’s

always worse when the gang hires someone else

to do the killing. They only give a discription of 3

the person they want taking care of. So the hit man hasn’t even seen the guy he’s guna shoot before. Sometimes they shoot the wrong person. Them, if the person who was killed by mistake was in a gang,

their gang goes and gets revenge

Mailk Garvey-

london youth

The increase in knife and gun crime is taking its hold on England. Knives are being used in almost 4 out of 10 killings in the UK, and people, especially youths, are fearing for their safety. Even with Knife amnesties, neighbourhood clampdowns, tougher sentencing, metal detectors in schools and plans to make knife-carriers meet and confront their victims there has still been no lasting reduction in knife and gun crime. police seem to have exhausted every last hope of reducing these statistics leaving young people still living with a constant fear. We need to evolve. We need to think. We need to deal with this problem. We need to find the cause and more importantly we need to find the prevention...


ONE:

Honourable adornment

4


Honourable Adornment

5

The use of embellishment creates a new dimension to any item of clothing, And in the time of The Samurai, the more adorned the armour the more powerful the wearer. Jewels, pearls, gilded copper and black alloy create a powerful, protective and luxurious garment. Not only functional but beautiful. With the need to protect elevating, along with the need to show status and power through clothi ng, the use of embellishment will flurish.


The colours or images featured on a garment can show status and power, In Samurai armour, the ‘mon’ (family crest) featured predominatly in the mans armour, not only to honour the family but to show their status. Similar in London gang culture the colours worn, the symbols placed or the scarf shown gives the person idetity and status.

High Shine 17

“tHE FASHION FOR PARADE ARMOURS, HOWEVER, CONTINUED. tHEY WERE NOW USUALLY DECORATED WITH ELABORATE EMBOSSED FOLIAGE, GROTESQUES AND CLASSICAL SCENES, GENERALLY DAMASCENDED IN GOLD OR SILVER... iN ADDITION SEMI-PRECIOUS STONES WERE OFTEN SET ALONG THE BORDERS.” Armour can protect but also impress. The intricate decoration placed on a metal backdrop can be awe inspiring, worn with colours and soft fabrics this trend can protect the body aswell as enhance it.


A tough looks, with metal as its staple material. The body is used as a mold, to create figure hugging body pieces, with intricate fastenings, impressive shine and texture. The light that bounces off the surface creates a whirlpool of colour. Chainmail along with scales are prominent. Making striking garments that give saftey aswell as individuality.

THREE:

Quadratura Armadura

28


Quadratura Armadura

29

Quaratura defined: �Introduced in the 17th Century...with approaches to deception... The artist would paint a feigned architecture in perspective on a flat or barrel-vaulted ceiling in such a way that it seems to continue the existing architecture.� Inspired by the graphic images seen on The samurais along with the intricate incravings seen on parade armour, Quadratura Armadura


incorporates the idea of escapism with the bold shapes of protection.The fairytale imagery placed on the garments gives a dreamy impression of a utopia, contrasted with the bold lines and colours of armour bravado. This trend gives hope of a better world, a pastel coloured bliss waiting on the other side. Everythings simple, the colours, the shapes. the make- up and the hair.

FOUR:

Structure and Regime

Structure and Regime 41

Structure is needed to control, and control is needed to have Structure. With gang crime running wild in London, the need for control is overwhelming, but who’s the higher ranking? The police? Or the gang leader? ‘Structure and Regime ‘ is influenced by this fight for control, the bold imposing lines contrasted with bright clashing colours.


42

The structure of leather and metals contradicted by soft light fabrics, giving a strong female edge. The contours of the body are fighting with the new lines creted by the clothes creating a dominating look.
