Fashion: Camille Cortet

See for yourself

This part of the project is about transformations that lead to the creation of adornments.
By observing animals’ transformations we understand animals’ behaviours that we can connect with and that we would like to have from them. These animal’s behaviours are inspirations for our own transformations. 
Thus, we start a process of transformation. 
My process to create these animal inspired behaviours is led by 3 stages : copying - merging - and translating. The translation  stage, is about adapting this behaviours to our culture. It is a way to create new gestures and new body languages within clothing and ornaments.
We can resume this process as designing by connecting with the animal.  We translate the animal’s beauty and finally merge with its behaviour,  almost to the point of embodying it.
 This part is divided in 3 topics: the bird and seduction - the fish and shielding - the snake and molting.

❙ Slow-Water ❙

 Water flows, escapes, leaks and disappears.We use water everyday, the amount of used water varies with the use and the awareness of each user. Slow water is an exploration into the experience of water use in daily life. 
The sink is made out of concrete. The surface is nearly flat and waxed, the water flows down in the tiny hole in the center.
With a slow flow the water falls down quietly. Drops appear on the waxed surface, they fall slowly and disappear. If the flow is too intense, water overflows and is absorbed by the concrete on the sides. The tracks of water are appearing and marking the sink. Slow water tends to change the user habits by showing the beauty of water drops and slowness.
