Luxury is often narrowly defined as high-end fashion, a perception that has become a widely accepted industry standard. This definition not only monopolizes the discourse around fashion but also positions luxury as an unquestionable authority. However, such a viewpoint prompts critical questions: What really defines beauty, fashion, and, more importantly, the essence of fashion itself?
This project aims to challenge prevailing notions of fashion by establishing a fashion hub adjacent to a lively, somewhat chaotic night market, bustling with street food vendors and more modest apparel options. The site is defined by a vivid contrast between its two sides. I integrated this stark contrast into my design. The focal point of the design is a high-end fashion shopping center, encircling an open-air night market. This juxtaposition not only aligns with the unique conditions of the site but also serves as a visual and conceptual interrogation of traditional definitions of “Fashion.” By contrasting these two worlds, the project invites reflection on the broader meaning and accessibility of fashion.
