The Proposal for Green Fashion Competition Anugerah
Hijau
Theme: Fashionably Bamboo (Ready-to-wear)
By
Seri Mas Ayu Mashuri & Laura Yep Ai Mei

Inspiration of design

Our inspiration for the design is architecture building from “Sultan Abdul Samad Building” for Green Fashion Competition with the theme “wearable”. The Sultan Abdul Samad Building has been a landmark for Kuala Lumpur .we were intrigued with the architecture heritage design from “Sultan Abdul Samad Building “. The reasons why we choose the building are because we want create some new fresh design from historical or old design to be futuristic design.

Detail/ description
Garment: Menswear
Materials for Garment: Bamboo fabric & Batik sarong
Batik sarong: The old batik sarongs that are kept by my mum that is torn or unused. We        
Construct and manipulate certain parts of the batik sarong to be on our design.
Accessories: Messenger beg
Materials for Accessories: Batik sarong and egg box
Egg box: From my house and small shop (the one they throw away). We hammer and sew them
    together to become the beg.



Location of where the recyclable / discarded

The materials that we used in our design were found in Seri Mas Ayu (one of our team
member) home. Batik sarong are old clothes that are not wearable because there
are torn everywhere and egg box we get from shop near with her house.

- The curves on the design are inspired by the curve of the gate in Sultan Abdul Samad Building.
- The lines in the inner shirt are inspired by the lines form by the brick of the building.
- The gray color parts are where the batik sarong supposed to be.
- We will be using natural dye extract by ourselves from vegetables and fruits.
- The inner shirt is dyed using tie dye technique.

Messenger Beg (Accessory)



-          The grey color parts are made out of the batik sarong.
-          The cream colors are made out of the nest egg.
