Today. On Wool n’ Spinning Radio. Rebecca and I sat down to begin discussing our respective clothing philosophies. If you haven’t heard of clothing philosophies before, it is characterized as a way of expressing an inner truth or belief about an idea, oneself or the world through the medium of clothing. Some believe that all aspects of a garment can speak to a person’s personal philosophy about the world, themselves, or anything else (Scenes Media, 2022). This might be attention paid to texture, drape, colours, cut and style and many other aspects of clothing and fabric that help us to shape messaging, whether about ourselves or the world around us (Scenes Media).While we can talk about high fashion and those designing clothing, who might have well-established clothing philosophies that help them in their creative process to continue to create, just as we see in true art. A philosophy might be simple and basic or there might be heavy-duty thought behind it. Taken from Scenes Media, our call to action is to think about what you wear, how it reflects (or doesn’t reflect) the person that you are, and what that tells the world about you (Scenes Media, 2022).To see Rebecca & Rachel's Colour Palette Generated Photos from their personal wardrobes & Ravelry Project Pages, please head to Patreon.
