While reading Alice Payne’s study, especially the section on transformable design practice, I was reminded of a decent bit of my wardrobe as a child in the early 2000s. During this time period, the practice of reversible clothing was a huge hit, everything from shorts to hoodies, where either side were either a different design or color. Although I really liked this design choice as a child, as opposed to Payne’s Australian study, I find that the implementation of a similar idea would be unfavorable as a 22 year old. Yet, I really do like the idea of compartmentalizing garments, so that if I were to, say tear a pocket in a pear of jeans or stain in with red wine, I would easily be able to replace it without the need to throw them away. This practice does have the potential to make the fashion industry more sustainable, but I feel like the laziness of the majority will prevent this from becoming a mainstream practice for years to come. There is potential for designers to appropriately, and most likely slowly, move this into the mainstream consumption of garments, but as Payne highlights, budget constraints and the gears of capitalism tend to prevent this.
