A pleat is not a pleat New perspectives of pleats through the lens of textile thinking and design research

Tsai-Chun Huang is a material player with a costume design background.
His PhD research based at Royal College of Art, London (Textile Design 2014-19) explores the spatial relationship between garments and the human body, focusing on the flow motion of pleating.

During his PhD research, he revised the traditional hand pleating method and demonstrated the new technique by hosting workshops in the USA, the UK, Czech Republic, China and Taiwan.

Tsai-Chun believes that the development of new materials will dramatically change fashion in the future. Therefore, he is committed to researching the new possibility of pleated textiles.
