Beyond Borders - Dazed x BFC Competition

BEYOND BORDERS BRIEF: DESIGN

communities.
Using this as the central theme, working as a designer, produce an outcome that fulfils your own
interpretation of ‘Beyond Borders’. Use your own identity and personal experiences to inform
your work. Ideas presented should feel distinct and personal; will your work centre around a
muse? Or will this take a more cerebral approach? Consider what makes your work and idea of
‘Beyond Borders’ unique.

digital Dazed magazines on Exact Editions containing both archived and new content which you
can use as a research resource. Select the “library card” option in the top right-hand corner.

•A capsule collection consisting of 6 full looks (drawn or digitally rendered in a final line up).

a balanced range that includes different types of garments such as tailoring, knit, denim etc.

Hidden Beauty

This collection is a tribute to my country Guiana.
Constantly being subjected to negative stereotypes with harmful consequences to the land and its people. I choose to reveal to the world Guiana’s beauty through the use of the emerald tree boa (local species) as a symbolic representation along with the inclusion cultural heritages from its three main ethnic groups.
Much like the snake perceived in a negative light Guiana will go through evolution stages creating a parallel between the ontogenetic, shedding phases of the boa, and the introduction of each cultural element.

Portfolio Pages

The silhouettes in this project were developed from the boa's body shapes and movements, whilst details and embellishments originate from the Native Americans’, Maroons’ and Creoles’ traditional practices.
Indeed, the Native Americans’ basketweaving prowess and accessories making is an area of focus in the project. The patterns embedded in their crafts such as ‘Okoyu’ ‘(Kali’na tribe) and ‘Datka gama’ (Palikur tribe) respectively representing a snake and the skin of a boa, are a constant in this collection as embellishment/texture components.
The lost practice of scarification by the Maroons named 'Kokoti' meaning 'beauty' is also analysed and developed into a form of embellishment.
Lastly, the delicate handcrafted gold jewelry and their significance in Creoles’ traditions is implemented through styling choice.

Daï Ati

Their communicative art known as Tembé is intricately infused with various moiré patterns to be included as a print element in the project.Guiana is the home of a vast amount of people from different ethnicities and/or nationalities. Recently, due to socio-political reasons, tensions between groups have been slowly emerging.
