The Design

About Re Created Swît Cynaliadwy

Mae'r casgliad yn ceisio creu esthetig newydd sy'n deillio o wastraff y diwydiant gwnïo. Mae'r awdur yn creu modelau o ddyluniadau o wahanol ddarnau trwy gyfuniadau o gymesureddau, lliwiau a gweadau. Mae modelau a grëwyd o wahanol ddarnau yn symbol o luosogrwydd person. Mae pob model yn wahanol ac yn unigryw. Ar gyfer cyflwyno'r casgliad dewisodd Kęstutis Lekeckas le sydd weithiau'n debyg i adeiladwaith adeiladau newydd, ac weithiau - adfeilion apocalyptaidd, mae'r awdur yn ceisio tynnu sylw at senarios posibl yn y dyfodol ac yn annog gwylwyr i ailfeddwl am eu gwerthoedd.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Collection develops slow fashion ideas, creating a new aesthetic through waste and scrap from the sewing industry. Unique models are delivered with a variety of stylistic combinations, from a classic snug suit to oversize. Models created from pieces symbolize versatility and multiplicity of a person, inspiring to rethink our values and re-create ourselves. The location was chosen like an allusion of an apocalypse, which we can avoid only by changing ourselves fundamentally - a new rebirth.
Dimensions & Packaging: The suits made for men, sizes from 48 to 56. There is possibilities to wear like classical or oversize style.
Tags: sustainable suite, lekeckas, men fashion, sustainable fashion, unique suit, sustainable jacket, jascke, suite, patchwork jacket
Production Technology: Only natural and organic materials. Main material is scarps of natural, best quality wool 130s.
Design Challenge: Material fragments come in very different textures and colors, sometimes in different qualities, so combining it all into one product means creating a design based on random combinations. The process is long and the design is created live by laying and joining different pieces.
Research: The idea of the collection was developed to influence the evolution of sustainable fashion. Based the large amounts of waste given from fashion industry, the idea of how to create original and unique products for new aesthetics has been proposed. It is important that the new design forces consumers to think, make responsible choices and change their habits. The stylistics and patchwork methodology of Lithuanian national heritage were used for this work.
Inspiration: The creation of the collection was most inspired by Earth Overshoot Day which marks the date when humanitys demand for ecological resources and services in a given year exceeds what the Earth can regenerate in that year. In 2020, it fell on August 22. I hope to reduce earth resource consumption although a little, thanks to my design. Lithuanian national heritage is also inspiring, silhouettes and details close to the national costume, material combinations close to the Lithuanian patchwork.
Project Duration: The collection presented on January, 2021 in Kaunas, fashion house leKeckas. The presentation was presented in Lithuanian and foreign media
Operation Flow: These original costumes can be worn in a traditional way combined with a shirt, tie and oth. Or out of set in combination with casual wear. The jacket is perfect looks with jeans or golf. In this way, more wear variations appear, the range assortment is expanded, and the idea of sustainable fashion is contributed.
