    The purpose of this project was to create a contemporary upcycled garment driven by the concept of the golden ratio through the use of re-purposed and post-consumer material which in this case came from used knit socks. This design project shows the designers interest in the ways of in which object becomes entangled with the concept of deconstruction and reconstruction. The fabric for this dress was created by placing and sewing together different size triangle shapes of socks by following golden ratio and the surface of the jacket was embellished by various sized fiber berries from socks materials. The main foot part of the socks was cut into triangle shapes and seamed together to create a dress. The ribbed cuffs parts of the socks were sewn together to create a bolero jacket. The toe parts of the socks were used to create fiber berries to embellish the bolero jacket

    The purpose of design was to develop a sustainable design through the use of re-purposed and post-consumer materials inspired by an Op-art artist. The work of British painter and designer Bridget Riley was used as a source of inspiration; her work is generally known for being one of the foremost examples of Op-art. Her distinctive style of black-and-white optical art paintings uses simple geometrical shapes that include circles, squares, or stripes to establish intricate and repetitive patterns that create an appearance of movement as well as other optical illusions (Biography, 2016). Several pairs of post consumer khaki pants in two different hues with different sizes and shapes were hand-cut and sewn together to create a fabric surface for the top and the skirt
