Fashion is a form of expression! It can impact our mood and the way we feel about ourselves and the world around us! It can dictate how we go about our days, and it can record and reflect personal, cultural, and national growth. It is an international language we all share in common; with the freedom to speak and act with. It is miserly what I like to call, wearable art. A second skin which can be used as a form of change! As a designer, it is my duty to bring this art of change to life… from paper and poetry to fabric and sculpture; the aftermath is impact! Karina Edmonds is a grade 10 student who is passionate about fashion design. She presented a 5 piece collection in the New York Fashion Week this past fall. In preparation, she spent months carefully hand-crafting each piece with her heart and creativity. Through each fashion piece, she creates, her most inner-thoughts about the constantly evolving world are reflected. Karina believes that the wearable art of fashion can create change as all art can do too! It can uplift people's confidence, help express their inner persona and spread change statement carried! Additionally, Karina believes in the education of the fashion industry in order to create change! Karina hopes in the future to be working with new technology to create sustainable clothing that is still creative and unusual! She hopes to help to the better of the world rather than add to its waste and this TedX will be a beginning to educate minds to convince society of the better because education is keen to move society! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
