The Fashion Edit was a workshop, held as part of the 2019 AAANZ Conference at the University of Auckland, that questioned how fashion functions representationally in terms of images and sought to offer wearers an opportunity to visually edit a commercial fashion garment. This was done by applying a black, iron-on patch to redact an unwanted aspect from a piece of clothing, the results of which were documented photographically and with swing tag statements.

All garments generously donated by Savers Recycle Super Store Moorabbin. Special thanks also to Monica Wang, Tessa Cammell, Linda Tyler, Ricarda Bigolin, Sean Ryan and everyone who took part in the workshop.
