16thGrand Prix(2016)

APPAREL

Title:

for when. . .


Creator:NAKANO AKARI

School:TOKYO MODE GAKUEN

Items used:

  • Reflective Tape Zipper
  • LENART®
  • SOFIX®

Explanation of work:
This lightweight, stylish coat transforms into a disaster-preparedness hood, sleeping bag, and pouch, with the mindset that “protecting yourself” ultimately leads to protecting everyone else.
Zipping up the outer edges of the collar, which uses a reflective zipper, transforms it into a disaster-preparedness hood. The back side is secured with materials such asSOFIX® strips of tape with snaps and buttons, and by moving them one notch to the side and attaching them, the coat can be used as a sleeping bag; remove the back side and it can also double as a lap blanket.
