The word fragility comes up when I think about Inherent Vice. I decided to feature the rose motif in my pattern to signal that fragility, connection between the limited lifespans of flowers and clothes. As I was designing, I was reminded of our class conversation about whether a limited life span is in fact bad. Just as the deteriorated museum dresses have been recreated by students into new pieces, death might be seen as the beginning, as rebirth.
