Redress Design Award Collection
For his Redress Design Award 2011 collection (formerly the EcoChic Design Award), Eric was inspired by the recycling logo. He believes consumers don’t just care about fashion trends, fabrics and tailoring, but also a new concept of extending a garment’s life cycle.
To produce the collection, he combined different kinds of fabrics into one piece of cloth and then added pressed buttons on different locations of the hems allowing the user to wear each garment in multiple ways. This approach aimed to extend the “shelf life” of each garment and foster an interaction between designer, product and customer.
