About TAUKO #16 from the publisher:
TAUKO #16 explores the fascinating shared language between fashion and architecture: garments that are precise, sculptural, and bold enough to hold their own shape. These are clothes that build space around the body, transforming how we move through the world.
But there’s also a quieter story which is getting a spotlight in this issue: one of mending, caring, and creating with intention. Learning from restoration of architectural elements, we look at how the idea of care – of tending to what already exists – can be a design principle in its own right. The articles and essays invite us to see maintenance and mending as the core of creativity.
Inside, you’ll find nine stunning sewing patterns by international designers ranging from bold and architectural to timeless and wearable. Zero waste patterns, clean lines and unexpected subtle design elements are at the core of this special issue. Each pattern design comes with printed sewing patterns and step-by-step instructions, making them accessible for sewists of all skill levels. With sizes ranging from 31" (78 cm) to 57.5" (146 cm) bust, these patterns celebrate creativity for every body.
