Modular Anatomy

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

Another debut at Salone this year was Modular Anatomy, the first installment of what looks to be an interesting collaboration between Stone Island and young fashion designer Aitor Throup. The project involves the construction of an ostensibly traditional down jacket pieced together in small parts using separate, individually filled cushion segments.

Throup’s design philosophy starts with the human form and allows the garment to evolve organically, hence the building-block approach rather than a more conventional construction using sleeves, armholes and body panels. His five-stage process was showcased at Stone Island’s Milan showroom during Salone and can be viewed in our gallery, above.
