New York-based fashion designer Graham Tabor describes his S/S '09 collection as similar to an archaeological dig. Each of his fashion items is fragmented and separate from the rest of the collection.
The clothes have a strange deconstructed look which bears references to ancient warriors. Hairstyles that are intertwined with the garments create a whole universe of tribal textures, and men's fashion becomes a mask through which its wearer can express sacred rituals.
I am looking forward to seeing the progress of Graham Tabor as a fashion designer.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Fragmented Fashion
- Exploring the trend of fragmented fashion by using deconstructed looks and references to ancient warriors.
- Tribal Textures
- Incorporating tribal textures into fashion by intertwining hairstyles with garments.
- Fashion as Ritual
- Embracing fashion as a way to express sacred rituals and create a spiritual experience for the wearer.
Sectors Adopting This
- Fashion Design
- Opportunity for fashion designers to experiment with fragmented looks and incorporate tribal textures into their collections.
- Hair and Beauty
- Potential for hairstylists to collaborate with fashion designers to create unique hairstyles that intertwine with garments.
- Sustainable Fashion
- Integration of sacred rituals in fashion can inspire designers to explore sustainable materials and production methods.
