The multi-purpose garment One is many plays not only with the usual typology of clothing but also with all the invisible borders between design, fashion and art. The garment consists of three pieces — a skirt and two semicircle-shaped elements. All of the edges are lined with zippers that allow modular conections and offer a number of wearable possibilities. One is many is deeply thought out piece that interrogates the function of the garment and its broader social significance (fashionability, misogyny  of fashion trends, technological advances). It brings into the vocabulary of clothing such often forgotten categories as comfort and protection — concepts usually found in the vocabulary of product design.
