Fashion Subculture- Minimalism


Toronto based designer John Tong have designed ‘Les Ailes Noires,’ a collection of clothing racks inspired by the simplicity of geometric line drawings which are minimalist graphic. The collection features 11 different freestanding units that are weighted to lean against a wall or flat surface.

Madeleine Vionnet's introduces the bias cut and brings a new fluidity of movement to her Grecian designs, 1914.

Originally trained as a civil engineer, André Courrèges builds his 'Space Age' look of 1964 out of squares, trapezoids and triangles.



Roy Halston Frowick, a.k.a. Halston, designs fluid gowns for '70s disco dwellers as well as uniforms for flight attendants, the US Olympic team, the NYPD, and even the Girls Scouts.

Japanese designers Yohji Yamamoto, Issey Miyake and Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons make gender ambiguous, minimalist, anti-fashion statements in the 1980s.
