Visual Communication Design, 2018

As consumers, we are a part of a system that trains us to buy more and more products of increasingly lower quality by an industry that hides the outrageously high environmental and social cost of its production. a|wear is a series of four books that explains the garment industry and the impact that it has on many different people, cultures, and environments. The books are designed to be a source of inspiration that provides useful insights intended to help you “sustainability” your closet and your habits. This book series is a compilation of writings and images from different people who are educated or involved with the fashion industry in some way. The books will be released one at a time chronologically, so volumes 2-4 will be available at a later date.

Emily Datsko is a Visual Communication Designer who is intrigued by the relationship between art and design.
