Document Summary

All the stages a garment has to pass through, from the idea of the designer, production , marketings, distribution etc . > responsible for the annual or seasonal change of silhouette and form, textile, material, colour and pattern in clothes. Not a linear form but rather more dynamic. (web work) systems help us see new opportunities > it is a way of thinking that gives us the freedom to identify root causes of problems and see new opportunities. Leverage points: place within the system where a small shift in one thing can change can produce a big change in everything . E. g: models as leverage points > diversity of models causes ripple effect in the industry, causes designers to question sample size, start change reaction of consumers, bloggers start media coverage. Allow us to have systemic change -> change that effects the whole system. 1. trickle down theory (fashion ideas travel from people with status down to the general mass population)
