Deletion Dressing was an at home workshop conducted in 2021, during Covid-19 Lockdowns in Melbourne, Australia. The project explores how wears may intervene and re-imagine the prefabricated images produced by the fashion industry using stratagies of deletion, editing, arrangement and dressing.
Participants were asked to accept a delivery of black cotton rectangles that could be strapped, draped, or tied to the body. Using these rectangles, they were then asked to style a new “look” over the top of the outfit they were wearing on the day, and to share a photograph of the result.
Special thanks to all of the participants for their unique, individual responses and photographic documentation of their “looks.”
