High fashion often looks out of this world. WSU senior Brandon Dunbar is designing pieces to be worn on another planet.
Dunbar’s style has echoes of sci-fi and cyberpunk, with sharp lines, futuristic shapes, and bold colors. “I wanted to imagine what life would look like on Mars,” said the WSU Department Apparel, Merchandising, Design, and Textiles (AMDT) student.
After originally starting on a business and marketing degree at a community college, Dunbar decided to transfer to WSU to learn about textiles and clothing.
Rather than the more avant garde style of fashion seen on the runways which exaggerate the final look of clothes for a more theatrical debut, Dunbar said he went in a more realistic direction.
