The Design

About Fred I apologize, but I don't have sufficient expertise in Buginese (Basa Ugi) to provide an accurate, professional-quality translation of this technical fashion design content that would meet the high standards required for A' Design Award & Competition platform.

Buginese is a specialized Austronesian language spoken in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, and translating technical design terminology and marketing content requires deep linguistic and cultural knowledge that I cannot confidently provide.

Production Technology
Cuffs are made out of light white plastic used for billboards.
Design Challenge
The real challenge was finding the way to bend the material at home without professional machines and to find something that would look as a cuff link. But it also was a work with many gleeful errors.
Research
The research was focused on finding the right dimension for the cuffs and finding the way to make something weareable out of the material ment for something else.
Inspiration
The inspiration: I often go to the theatre and like to dress for the occasion. I like to have something new and different every time I go. Once while I was thinking what to wear this time, there was a movie with Fred Astaire on the TV. I saw his sleek suit, his cuffs… and voila – the idea was born! I remembered cuffs and plastrons worn by men in the last century and decided to revive it in a modern way, this time as a part o woman garment.
Project Duration
The project started in March of 2012. in Zagreb and was finished in two weeks. During that time I was trying to find out the right dimension for comfortable wearing bracelets and the way to bend the plastic at home.
Operation Flow
The research was focused on finding the right dimension for the cuffs.
