Tailored Precision Building: DC Fashion Incubator/Epicenter

This thesis is a flirtation with architectural materials and tailoring techniques that questions industry solutions and standards. Searching with tailoring precision to create architectural seams, edges, darts, and connections. By coincidence, luck, or destiny, this thesis is also the beginning of Washington DC as a fashion capital of the world by being the epicenter to the new movement on fashion in DC.
