I found out that the ideas of deconstruction which are also related to fashion, have transformed philosophy, literature, film theory and production, and related design areas of architecture, graphic design and new media.
The word "deconstruction" comes from the French philosopher Jacques Derrida and generally attempts to demonstrate that "something" is not a discrete whole but contains several meanings; that "something" therefore has more than one interpretation; that "something" itself links these interpretations inseparably. Whatever its original meaning, deconstruction has come to mean "tear down" or "destroy".
Rei Kawakubo, Hussein Chalayan, then Karl Lagerfield, Martin Margiela and Alexander McQueen are the first designers to apply the philosophy of deconstructionism to fashion.
"There was a new structure to these clothes. Taking the stunning dress with an architectural shape is so sculpturally defiant, it evoked armor. Anybody who wore it would be paparazzi-proof."
