this collection takes a look at the film “fight club” and how the characters circum to radical solutions; from self-destruction, dilusion, anti-consumerism violence, and more. i chose to take on design problems and creations through radical solutions like the narrarator / jack does in the film. i chose to thrift 4 basic garments to take apart. the characters rid themselves of all possessions so then they are free to do anything they desire. i took this mindset when stripping apart the garment so then i can create as freely as possible using the garments. i decided to drape the looks with these four basics i thrifted as well as use obscure references from the film that real fans would notice and understand the origin of a graphic or text; as well as be able to connect the themes.

We have front row seats for this Theater of Mass Destruction. The Demolitions Committee of Project Mayhem wrapped the foundation columns of ten buildings with blasting gelatin.

Self-improvement is masturbation.
]self-destruction is the answer.
Self-destruction is the answer. Fight club was the beginning. Now it’s out of the basements and there’s a name for it -- Project Mayhem. project mayhem
it’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.
