Tatenda Chiguvare
I investigated the school uniform and aimed to reinvent it with a modern twist. I looked into hip-hop and incorporated the baggy silhouettes in my work. I added sportswear elements, inspired by the ‘rebelliousness’ of school boys as some wear trainers or joggers with uniforms. I also looked into party culture and environments. I found it interesting to look into where these boys socialise and what things they like to do. I planned to mix sportswear with traditional uniforms therefore my outfits will vary in fabrics and finishes which would be included unconventionally, adding depth and interest to my work. The sportswear will be inspired by PE kits aswell as menswear generally.
