Bricolage


Bricolage is the work of fitting an object and using it for a function that was not originally planned. Bricolage can be created in any art linked field varying from paintings, graphic design, 3D to fashion and also, in everyday life. In the world of Bricolage creativity is the key. Bricolage can also be described as a method of doing things the opposite to how they are intended to.
The fashion production uses bricolage like styles by integrating objects normally consumed for other functions. For example, using candy wrappers to produce handbags.



Another example of Bricolage in fashion would be from the film Zoolander. In the movie one of the main characters, Mugatu, creates a clothing line called “Derelicte”, this clothing line is based around using junk to make clothes.
