One of New Zealand’s most striking creative events comes to life in this revised visual sourcebook. The World of WearableArt documents the annual competition where fashion and art collide into imaginative, often sculptural garments.

This second edition is updated with new photographs that highlight the diversity of materials and construction approaches—recycled parts, found objects, textiles and organic elements—used to create wearable sculpture.
