Day 3: Pants
More potential concepts for the final collection. I figure I would use this week to explore as many ideas as possible, so I have a good number (and variety) of items to choose from when I start building out my final collection next week on.
Yesterday's shirt collar was about capitalizing on fear. Today, I'm leaning more towards embarrassment. Thinking about how I can make a pair of suit pants embarrass its user, one idea I came up with is to sow blood packs (that are easily punctured) onto the inner lining right above the knees, so if the user crosses his/her legs, there will be theatrical bleeding. The second idea is to insert two thin mental rods connected by a joint into the suit pants, having it span from one thigh, across the crotch, to the other thigh. In this case, if the user crosses his/her legs, the structure will contract and cause the crotch area to tent up (yeah, I went there. I hope this doesn't offend anyone!). I tested this mechanism with paper, and I think it will work(?).
