Frothing soap bubbles, sounds of trickling bath taps, the commotion outside one’s bedroom window: these are elements of Kun Qian’s home fantasy, founded at the apotheosis of lockdown. It draws on banal sensations and familiar comforts, “reimagining an object you see every day to be something wearable,” says the Textiles for Fashion designer. From China but living near apartment-clad Barbican, the location opened Kun’s mind to the interiors of a hotel bathroom. She went forth to conduct material investigations, upcycling found goods like towel robes, sponge scrubbers, tablecloths, and shower gloves into frilly, homespun frocks and netted shower caps blown to colossal proportions.
