Deconstructing the Familiar: A New Perspective on Old Favorites

Cmmawear comes across with Vuja Dé on a project of reworks




 

The collaboration with Vuja Dé was centered on the deconstruction and reassembly of existing items to deliver novel visual experiences. The objective was to seamlessly integrate details such as pockets, buttons, and zippers with precision cutting techniques, resulting in designs that are both distinct and harmonious. This process involved a meticulous analysis of each item, followed by numerous simulations of potential cut designs to identify the optimal configuration.


In the case of the Dickies pants, the cut lines were stitched in a manner that allows the threads to gradually fray with wear, imparting a unique character to the garment over time. Subtle depth was introduced at the ends of the cut lines to naturally draw attention, while a new pocket was added in place of the original back pocket to enhance functionality. Additionally, the outer seams were widened to create a fresh silhouette, with snap-button closures providing both convenience and aesthetic appeal.



For the Carhartt Detroit jacket, the existing pockets were integrated with the cut lines to evolve the torn details into deliberate design elements. Each color-way featured distinct detailing to offer variation, and the hardware—including snap buttons, collars, and linings—was replaced to improve both durability and visual cohesion.


This collaboration extended beyond mere reinterpretation; it sought to breathe new life into classic pieces. By honoring the wear and history of these items while incorporating innovative design elements, we were able to create products that seamlessly bridge the past with the present.
