A Perfect Fit

By  Lucy Brown 2006

John Lawrence

Dimensions
92cm x 190cm x 2cm (variable)

A Perfect Fit is woven from a size 16/18 'Gossard' camisole and a size 10/12 'Under Studies' half-slip. The work is a comment on the variations of size charts in fashion retail high streets. The two underwear garments, made by two different companies, have been deconstructed and reconstructed to form a perfect fit. A Perfect Fit is part of a series of seven works which are re-tensioned and nailed to the wall. These works act like a butterfly collection, pinned, trapped, categorised and to be scrutinised.
