Radical Embellishment: Queer Looks
@ Corner
2912 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago IL
Opening Sunday, February 28th, from 2PM - 6PM
Do you want to learn to more radically encapsulate your identity in your clothing? Want to learn to genderfuck that dress/skirt/crop top? Want to make your clothing as androgynous as possible? Come as you are and leave feeling fabulous!
THIS WORKSHOP IS BYO GARMENT!! In order to teach people the basics of tailoring for their shape, as “gendered” clothing tends to be fitted a certain way, we’ll need a starting point, something you’ll want to invest time and effort in. Within this kind of tailoring are considerations of where the person wants to exist on the gender spectrum, as it will determine the fit they are going for in the garment. As an example, a friend of mine presents androgynous but is bilologically female. They want everything they wear to be somewhere in the center, straying slightly to a masculine cut or fit, but they have hips so it takes some doing as far as drape and fit go.
HIGHLY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ARE WELCOME!
ALL GENDERS AND ORIENATIONS ARE WELCOME!**
**This workshop (and Corner) comply with F.A.S.N. safe space guidelines and will not tollerate harassment or hate speach of any kind.
