Assessment 3 - “Sharing” in SOCU2302 Fashion textile place & story involves fabric manipulation and construction techniques, enabling me to creatively express my personal narrative through a uniquely designed garment. My design reflects the intersection of tradition and modernity, inspired by my Vietnamese heritage and personal experiences. I approached this by merging traditional elements with contemporary techniques, creating a piece that embodies both cultural identity and modern self-expression. Throughout the process, I experimented with textile manipulations such as embroidery and the creation of symbolic motifs that represent my heritage. Beyond the technical aspects, this assignment reinforced the idea that fashion is more than just clothing; it is a powerful medium for storytelling and self-expression. By integrating personal and historical elements into my garment, I was able to create a piece that not only reflects my heritage but also embraces my evolving identity. Looking ahead, I am eager to expand my creative approach by exploring innovative textile techniques and further refining my craftsmanship. This experience has fueled my passion for fashion design, inspiring me to continue using garments as a means of expressing culture, memory, and personal transformation.
