SHAO
Layered Illusion 3D Printed Striped Shirt
This garment plays with perception, structure, and semiotics—an optical and linguistic experiment disguised as shirting. The base: a grey-on-white striped button-down rendered in crisp cotton poplin, evoking the authority of institutional dress codes. Overlaid: a sleeveless white panel emblazoned with perforated text and symbols, creating a dialogue between uniformity and disruption. The dual-layer construction challenges the hierarchy of garments, turning what is usually foundation into façade. Oversized cuffs and a precise collar ground the piece in tailoring discipline, while the layered transparency and textual ambiguity introduce conceptual play. This shirt doesn’t simply clothe; it critiques—operating as both language and architecture on the body.
