I created a multifunctional and convertible jacket consisting of three parts that ultimately can provide the wearer with 22 separate looks depending on how one combines or styles the jacket. The jacket consists of three separate garments; a vest (also converts into a bag and a cape), a longer vest and a raincoat with detachable sleeves. These three parts can be combined with each other or worn separately depending on weather and taste. My source of material is second hand products and for this project I used nine different fabrics. Eight out of nine fabrics used for this particular garment came directly from old existing products - only one fabric was purchased at a fabric store. The fabrics were old products including six pairs of waterproof pants, one old Finnish Army rain coat, one old Finnish Army suit and a rain cover for a stroller. My aim is to facilitate the everyday lives of urban citizens, urban warriors, in a multi-sustainable way.
