Coatyarn & IFM student Lemaire Théa

"It was a true pleasure working with yarns of such amazing quality, thank you so much for your generosity, openness and availability. 

A few words on my collection : I’ve been inspired by how Feminist activists are depreciated by the media, and reduced to well-known stereotypes. My aim throughout this project was to distort and combine these archetypes to create a fearless woman, reappropriating insults to use them as weapons, and turning these stereotypes into tools of power. 

In these pictures, you can see how I’ve used your TPU yarn in a knit mimicking wire fences, to create this embroidered t-shirt and skirt."
