MODA PARA TODOS: promovendo a inclusão através do estilo Art déco

Abstract

This Final Project explores the development of inclusive clothing for minorities, such as people with disabilities and Plus Size people , suggesting garments without gender distinction, free from social prejudice and adaptable to all body types. The project uses Art Deco and its variations as an aesthetic foundation, incorporating elements of this movement into a product that combines functionality and design. Throughout the research, contradictory historical factors are reported that feed today's society, in a way that inverts and stigmatizes what would be of which gender or not. The study involved qualitative interviews with representatives of the interest groups, as well as statistical analyses examining the marginalization of these minorities in the fashion industry. These studies highlight the scarcity of accessible and representative alternatives, indicating the urgency of greater inclusion and integration of these communities in the sector. The data collected was used as the basis for creating a collection that values functionality, comfort and style. The conclusion is an inclusive collection, accompanied by a demonstration piece, which highlights the possibility of combining fashion and representativeness. The project reiterates the commitment to accessibility and the removal of obstacles, encouraging a more equitable and complete perspective in the field of fashion.
