Slow or fast, fashion is temporal. For many of us, the relationship to the life of clothes is partial or incomplete : materials become fabrics, fabrics become clothes, clothes become trends, trends are worn-off, clothes become rags…it happens.

As we want to understand our habits, engage through our consumption and frame how the world perceives us, several questions emerge.

What are the functions of clothes? What relation do clothes have with the body? What do we express through clothing? In which systems are clothes embedded? How are clothes statements? How are trends determined?
