The Statement Piece by Meeti Pahuja
Thesis Statement:
My thesis explores the brand ideology of a design studio that is a fashion-conscious brand that provides longevity and affordable luxury in the form of statement pieces.
Statement (n); a definite or clear expression of something. Piece (n); an object . So what is a statement piece? A statement piece, according to me, is something that enhances an ensemble, making it standout. It is that one element of transformation which makes you different, it may be a tiny ring or a glittering dress. Statement piece speaks for itself, a reflection of oneself.
My thesis explores the initial stage of brand building, which is the brand ideology. My business will be transacted through a high end studio that offers statement pieces designed through a combination of curation and customisation. The Studio will cater to fashion-conscious customers looking for stylistic innovations. Experimenting with various surface textures to create beautiful fabrics is one aspect. The studio will have mainly four categories of clothing: jackets, tops, including corsets, bottoms and dresses. The statement pieces will be a rendition of the classic silhouettes to add a personal touch.
They will range from simple, beautifully tailored garments to exquisite textures and embroideries that can be used for multiple occasions, never going out of style.
