abstract
Background The trend of modern fashion features a mix of styles with various diverse facades and views as it take a step towards innovative value. This study is to find out the characteristics embedded inside Anrealage works framing the creative avant-garde fashion world through their assessment. Methods The research was carried out by taking literature reviews and analytic case studies of collection. First, literature works about concept and characteristics on avant-garde and the relation of fashion and avant-garde were reviewed, as well as history of Anrealage and published works. Second, analysis of collections as case study was done on works from 2015S/S to 2016F/W introduced in the global stage. Theme, shape, color, material and pattern, and ornament were examined according to the season. Third, the research looked into the trend of avant-garde in the Anrealage works, based on the analyzed outcome. Result Collection themes were developed into seasonally unique one that reflects the designer`s conceptual idea. Shape followed the A and H lines on the whole. Modifications appeared, however, with some combination of asymmetry and symmetry as well as distortion and exaggeration according to the theme. Color mainly took an achromatic series, which was used for an instrumental usage to express the changing textile pattern or differentiated tone, depending on the given theme. For material, various textures were adopted. Effort to accept a new material was seen to highlight the theme. Pattern was expressed with convergence of elaborate manual work and cutting-edge hightech, showing diversity including geometry, abstract, flower pattern and such. The collection presentation gave a dramatic performance with hightech skill, where hidden images showed up rather than the models`images to bring the audience view to the clothing itself. To conclude, Anrealage works were thought to portray an avant-garde character with experimentalism of conceptual introspection, deconstructive dynamism of transboundary, and scientism of innovative creation. Conclusion This study suggested a new possibility of integrated aesthetics in fashion with creative value and high technology. Spirit of avant-garde for innovation would be a driving force for the forthcoming creativity in the fashion field.
