Part of TRACHT - WERK Project, a Collaboration of the Faculty with the City of Frankenberg (Eder).
A Sportive and Humorous Take on Historical German Folk Costume, focusing on a modern Equestrian.
My final look involves a Denim Jacket with modern Details, a Leather Harness and a sportive Shirt with a "fake-knit" Placed Graphic Print with the Logo of the City Frankenberg, all colors and materials inspired by historical folk clothing of that local area.   
The Outfit was shown at the "TRACHT-WERK" Fashion Show, that my faculty hosted in Frankenberg. Title of the Project is based on an old german saying in the region's dialect, loosely translated to "I think a horse just kicked me?!", used when you are in utter disbelief of something.
