‘Killer’ Marianne
Fashion Design ProjectJuly 2023
Description
This design project explores the fragmentation of the body through digital manipulation and garment-oriented thinking. Inspired by the case of Marianne Bachmeier and its continued circulation across contemporary media, it reflects on how narratives are reshaped through repetition, distortion, and partial information.
Translating these conditions into design, the project treats the body as an unstable form, using layering, displacement, and reconstruction to inform silhouette, surface, and construction. It reconsiders how both image and garment can frame, obscure, and redefine perception within menswear.
