An Unusual Epidemic Causes The Clothing Industry To Ponder Deeply.

In 2020, the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia outbreak caught people unprepared. In the face of the grim situation, medical protective materials such as masks and protective clothing were once in short supply. Many enterprises even went across industries to make masks and protective clothing for health care workers.

There is such a news: a girl who supports a line of nurses in Wuhan, Guangzhou, wears a wedding dress transformed from scrapped protective clothing and bouquet made of disposable gloves, holding a real wedding farewell ceremony with her boyfriend.

In real life, the Chinese people pay attention to the necessities of life, clothing is our top priority, clothing is our real protective clothing. The idea and devotion of ordinary people due to limited objective conditions are often the most warm and crucial part of changing the overall situation.

In 90s of last century, Japanese designer KosukeTsumura designed a jacket with dozens of pockets on the theme of "Final Home". The vagabond's Street Wisdom gave him inspiration. In his imagination, every pocket can be stuffed into newspapers to keep out the cold, so as to cope with the harsh outdoor environment.

MartinMargiela, a pioneer designer, has also designed the practice of reusing waste gloves and socks to make clothes, and explored the potential of human beings for creative use of materials under limited resources.

The essence of material reorganization when facing extreme conditions is reconstructing our spiritual world. Looking back at Britain in the Second World War, all kinds of textiles became important materials. In 1941, the British government announced the implementation of the clothing rationing system to reduce the output of civilian clothing and to use the factory and labor force to produce materials.

Today, the Chinese girl Foning Bao, who is studying at the central Saint Martin Institute in England, uses the shape and texture of the fish skin and knitted together to stretch it. The best use is not only a respect for nature, but also a kind of human reluctance to give in to the resilience of nature.

Before a garment was put into production, about 15% of its fabric was wasted in the cutting process. The waste of fabric also means that the natural resources and human resources involved in fabric production have also been wasted. Therefore, we try to reduce the waste of fabrics in various ways and maximize the utilization of fabrics, so as to reduce the demand for natural resources.

During the co epidemic, respiratory and critically ill experts studied the nature of the influenza virus and concluded that viruses on the smoother and smoother surfaces were more likely to survive and survive longer, and that they survived relatively short on plush fabrics. The needs of people in difficult times have also aroused the concern of practical designers and functional designers.

Despite numerous difficulties, we need to have confidence in the creativity and resilience of human beings. The more we respect the materials at hand, the more we can build our spiritual world. Difficulties always awaken the pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty, and how to get along with nature.
