The Design
About Woman in Power Desain Kostum
Woman in Power adalah kostum karnaval yang diciptakan untuk merepresentasikan kekuatan perempuan. Kostum ini membentuk siluet menyerupai kipas yang dihiasi bulu-bulu, dikenakan sebagai busana pernyataan. Warna merah muda dan ungu merujuk pada simbol global kesadaran kanker payudara dan kekerasan dalam rumah tangga. Struktur pahatannya dirangka dengan kawat logam dan disatukan menggunakan teknik khusus, kemudian dilapisi kain seperti spandeks dan renda, serta disempurnakan dengan payet dan ornamen lainnya. Woman in Power dibuat sepenuhnya dengan tangan dari awal sebagai penghormatan bagi para penyintas.

- Tags
- Costume, Carnival, Cayman, Women Empowerment,
- Production Technology
- This design was handmade from scratch, using a combination of various fabrics such as spandex, lace, and other embellishments such as sequins. The foundation that created the sculpted piece is framed with metal wire and bonded using a special technique.
- Design Challenge
- The most challenging design element is the time and effort to sculpt the design with the metal wire. This took extensive time to carve, frame, and secure before the fabric base could be applied. But the hardest challenge was the mental aspect of converting a dark personal story into a design that is uplifting and vibrant design.
- Research
- Design by a self-taught designer from the Cayman Islands who utilizes visualization to map and conceptualize the design. This particular design stems from a personal story that is retold in a manner to represent all women. Additionally, there was research using a combination of internet search and discussions to find the best way to create a representation that could speak to the combination of domestic abuse and breast cancer
- Inspiration
- This design pays homage to women's battles, specifically those who are breast cancer survivors and abuse. The combination of colors is taken from the global representation of breast cancer and domestic abuse – pink and purple. The design creates a fan-like shape adorned with feathers to create a statement piece representing women's ability to stand strong, stand tall, and overcome the physical and emotional battles associated with breast cancer and domestic abuse.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2018 and was completed in Dec 2019 in the Cayman Islands
