FIRST INSPIRATION OF MAJOR PROJECT

EMOTIONS' x CLOTHES

I was interested that clothes can express feelings by form, colour and texture.

So, I decided to make collection of emotive clothing.

In the first stages, I have done some research about people who wear emotive clothes.

Interestingly, there were some clothes which express people's own feeling.

This photo express anger because of forms of clothes.

This clothes show purity and hapiness with colours and textures of cloth.

This picture provide warm and virginity atmosphere by warm colour and lavish costume.

This clothes show mystique and dreamlike by lighting bulbs and forms.

 After this research, I started to find out about women's emotion AND men's emotion.

EMOTIONS x WOMEN

More sensitive" More creative.

One researcher has found subtle differences in brain function affect how the sexes respond to negative imagery.
Also, It is possible that women tend to focus more on the feelings generated by these stimuli, when men remain somewhat ‘passive’ toward negative emotions, trying to analyse the stimuli and their impact.

Because of those strings it looks like society connections and exhausted.

 Fur and leather trousers provide depart and distinction.

EMOTIONS x MEN

Sensitive" One dimension.

Men and women may handle emotions in quite different ways.
When upset, women are more likely to express their feelings directly, and to seek the support of friends and family, whereas men might hide their emotions or withdraw.
Men often feel that they need to be self-reliant. They are sometimes focussed on providing for their loved ones and hide their own emotions. This behaviour is reinforced everyday in the stereotype of the heroic male, so often represented in popular culture. Fearless, resourceful, stoic and usually facing adversity alone, these characters tell us a lot about what is considered to be ideal male behaviour within our society.
More powerful than film characters are the roles we see our parents playing. Many men have experienced fathers who were emotionally distant, who rarely, if ever, cried or expressed affection outwardly. The way we see our parents behave becomes the unconscious template for our own behaviour. We might not always be able to identify what we’re feeling or have the words to describe our emotions. Men may feel uncomfortable talking to someone about them, leading to frustration in relationships when they cannot express their needs, fears and grief.

Reflection: FROM THIS RESEARCH, I can get information about difference of emotions between male and female. Female express their emotions directly nevertheless, Male tends to hide their emotions and reliant themselves and because of this, emotive clothes of women's wear has a lot of diversity however, menswear are more simple and has one dimension.
It allowed me to decide the concept certainly.
