Studio nonnecessity

Inspired by dementia disease, I created a menswear collection of 5 looks. I did research for months in order to have a deep understanding on how this disease change them emotionally and physically. Through this research, I find that elder people with dementia usually loves to wear something familiar, because it gives the comfort. I translate this into deconstruct design and silhouette. I also apply sustainable design or recycle fabric, because I believed that this can represent patches of memory that they have lost. Through this collection i want to raise awareness of dementia disease, I hope I can be useful and give back to the community in the future. Finally, the title of this collection. Longest goodbye comes from the fact that People with dementia might die 4-8 years after diagnosis (though it can be different in some cases).
