My final thesis, KASKI – paper couture, is a material exploring based couture collection. The collection includes mainly Finnish paper and it focus to explore the usability of the wooden based fibers in fashion. The inspiration of my collection comes from the Finno-Ugric folk art. In the making part of the garments the challenges that are coming from the un-usual materials in fashion has been turned to practical solutions to create elegant garments. The thesis describes different parts of the design process from the background work to sketching, making and in the end to the final garments.
