Fashion from the Abyss: DOWNWARD THREADS is a book about fashion collections, created in symbiosis with artificial intelligence, a book — a mockumentary, a book — a tribute to Hans Giger, a book — an experiment. The book presents generated clothing collections and perfumes with the aesthetics of biomechanical Giger works. Each image and text fragment is accompanied by a corresponding prompt that stood behind their generation.
The collections includes a wedding dress collection (Dark Devotion), knitwear collection (EnvelopIng ChromatIcs) and pink tweed collection (Ebon Blush), as well as reflections on their creation by AI.
KTF Compact is used for titles and drop caps, Archivo for body copy, Druk for the page numbers, and GT America Mono for the quotes, captions, and subtitles.
