À propos

PlaySpace, led by London-based designer Miao Ho, pushes the significance of the sartorial, the structural appearance of virtual space, and the connectedness between each element of a garment. Inspiration particular to Ho’s London College of Fashion MA 2015 presentation comes directly from a question,

...

one that asks how virtual space can be divided by constructed space using light. Ho used inquisitiveness as fuel to create formal garments that represent tangible space organization via light with various hues layered upon one another in the simplest, yet cleanest garments managed. As the name suggests, PlaySpace manipulates the perception of space, of how designs manage the space they take up, as well as the expanse surrounding them, and of how illumination can alter this percipience.

THEO VII STUDIO a fashion label established by two designers, Miao Ho and Yu Ding. Initially, the name of the label was called THEORY VII, and it has been changed for the company and trade mark registration.

Through our design we attempt to break the barrier between genders and create a concept of

harmony by combining both womenswear and menswear elements. To this end, we pursue the application of a rational aesthetic which, when implemented, acts as a fusion of particular garment patterns, techniques, fun and the spirit of exploration.

AUTUMN / WINTER 2017 COLLECTION BY THEO VII STUDIO WAS INSPIRED BY OUR RESEARCH ABOUT ‘SHAMANS’. IN SHORT, SHAMAN IS A PERSON REGARDED AS A HEALER. THEY HAVE ACCESS TO, AND INFLUENCE IN THE WORLD OF GOOD OR EVIL SPIRITS. THEY PRACTICE DIVINATION AND HEALING TO HELP PEOPLE AROUND THEM. OUR CURIOSITY W

...

AS AT PEAK FROM THE VERY FIRST GLANCE, THERE WERE MANY THINGS THAT INTRIGUED US. THEIR SUPERNATURAL WORLD, THEIR CLOTHES, ACCESSORIES AND HEAD-WEAR, THEIR RITUAL AND RICH CULTURAL HISTORIES ARE ONE OF A KIND. WE WANT TO EXPLORE THEIR STORIES AND CREATE A SERIES OF GARMENTS FROM THIS.THERE WERE SO MANY INTERESTING ELEMENTS FROM THEIR ROBES. THIS IS BECAUSE, EVERY RITUAL THEY PERFORMED AND EACH PLACES THEY TRAVEL, THEY LEAVE MARKS ON THEIR ROBES TO CELEBRATE THEIR WEALTH IN KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE. EACH SHAMAN'S ROBE TELL A DIFFERENT STORY DEPENDING ON THEIR BACKGROUND. THEY WORSHIP AND ADORE ALL LIVING THINGS AND ANIMALS. THEY ARE ADORED WITH FABRICS AND ANIMAL SKIN, FUR, SKULLS, HORNS, AND FEATHERS. THEY BELIEVE THESE ELEMENTS GIVES THEM POWER AND HELP THEM ENTER THE REALM OF ANOTHER WORLD. IN THIS COLLECTION, OUR EXPLORATION PATH IS TO STUDY THE ELEMENTS THAT WAS ON SHAMAN’S CLOTHES, MANY VERSION OF FRINGE COULD BE SEEN ON SHAMAN’S ROBE. THEY ARE LONG AND COLORFUL. EACH STRIP REPRESENTS THE PLACES THEY HAVE TRAVELED TO IN THE WORLD. WE WOULD LIKE TO RECONSTRUCT THE IDEA OF

A FRINGE IN MANY WAYS. SECONDLY, THEY HAVE MIRRORS AND MANY DELICATE SILVER ACCESSORIES ON THEIR ROBE AS WELL. WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS THIS DETAIL BY USING REFLECTIVE SEQUINS AND BEADING TECHNIQUE TO CREATE A RICH AND 3D EFFECT ON OUR GARMENTS. THIS IS TO PORTRAY THE RICHNESS AND EMBELLISHED LOOK ON THE SHAMAN’S ROBE. WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO PLAY WITH PATCHWORK THIS SEASON AS IT COULD BE SEEN AS A TECHNIQUE USED BY THE SHAMAN TO CREATE THEIR ROBE FROM ANIMAL SKIN. THIS IS BECAUSE THEIR ROBE IS SO PRECIOUS THAT MENDING AND ADDING BECOMES PART OF THE CULTURE. THE COLOR RANGE WE ARE USING THIS SEASON ARE RICH AND COLORFUL AT THE SAME TIME. IT WILL BE WARM AND POWERFUL COLORS FOR AUTUMN AND HEAVIER, DARKER AND COOLER COLORS WILL FOLLOW THROUGH WINTER. THERE WILL ALSO BE HIGHLIGHTS OR BRIGHT COLORS TO GIVE IT A PUNCH TO COMPLETE THE WHOLE LOOK.
