"Off the Plinth" Draping and Design

University for the Creative Arts - May 2025

"Off the Plinth” is a collection developed during Sarah's semester abroad in London. She was inspired by art and the women frozen in perfect sculptures. Statues become a metaphor for the modern woman: placed high on a plinth, admired and immobilized. She explored the tension between softness and structure, natural and controlled beauty. Through draping and fabric manipulation, the wearer is fluidly moving off the pedestal: crumbling like rock, falling like water, or decomposing as plant life reclaims her.

Our Social Fabric Competition - March 2024

“G” was made for the 2024 Upcycled Competition sponsored by Our Social Fabric (OSF). The theme for the project was “Gaia” and the challenge was to use $40 of deadstock and upcycled materials from OSF. There were no boundaries on what to make, so Sarah developed a street jacket design she drafted in her Computer-Aided Design Drafting course.
