About Fred La Polsera

Hi ha molts tipus diferents de polseres i polseres: dissenyadors, daurats, plàstics, barats i cars ... però tan bonics com són, tots sempre són simplement i només polseres. Fred és alguna cosa més. Aquests punys, per la seva senzillesa, reviuen la noblesa dels temps antics, però són moderns. També es poden portar amb les mans nues amb una brusa de seda o un jersei negre, i sempre aportaran un toc de classe a la persona que el porta. Aquestes polseres són úniques perquè venen en parella. Són molt lleugers, cosa que fa que els vagi sentin dolents. Al vestir-los, es notarà de forma òptima!

Unique Properties: These bracelets are unique because they come as a pair. They are very light which makes their wearing comfortable

Tags: cuffs, bracelets, accessories, fashion, plastic
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.
