Dress Project (Istanbul Fashion Academy x London College of Fashion/First Year, Third Semester Project)
Within the scope of the "Heroic Toys" theme, I chose Collodi’s Pinocchio as my toy hero. I reimagined him as a modern influencer figure—an online persona whose follower count increases with every lie, just like his growing nose. This concept centers around a fictional digital parasite that feeds off virtual attention and deception.
To bring this idea to life, I utilized polyester printing technology, which allowed me to visualize the narrative directly on fabric. This project not only supported my conceptual development but also contributed to my practical experience in textile printing technologies, enriching my theoretical knowledge with hands-on application.
