Deconstruction (fashion)

Deconstruction (or deconstructivism) is a fashion phenomenon of the 1980s and 1990s. It involves the use of costume forms that are based on identifying the structure of clothing - they are used as an external element of the costume. This phenomenon is associated with designers Martin Margiela, Yohji Yamamoto, Rei Kawakubo, Karl Lagerfeld, Ann Demeulemeester, Dries van Noten and Helmut Lang. Deconstructivism in fashion is considered as part of a philosophical system formed under the influence of the works of Jacques Derrida.
