Trims, DIY fashion, and AR filters | Daniela Monasterios Tan Framing Visual Culture
-
- Visual Arts
In today’s episode of Framing Visual Culture, I speak with fashion curator and lecturer Daniela Monasterios on trims, DIY fashion, and AR filters. Daniela is currently working on an experimental fashion exhibition with artist Stephanie J Burt, titled “A Stubborn Bloom.” This exhibition explores femininity through material culture and “feminine” tropes in films such as The Virgin Suicides and Marie Antoinette by Sofia Coppola and Picnic on Hanging Rock by Peter Weir. In preparation for the exhibition, Daniela has been collecting antique items and trims of lace, ribbons, or gloves from women who inherited these items from their grandmothers. In this episode, we delve into the idea of using trims as a form of fashioning one’s own identity, adding some personal touch and flavour to their outfits, be it rococo fashion or on the streets of Harajuku in the 90s, or today with AR filters over our faces.
