Hylemorph Identities are fluid moments. The starting point for this final project is Aristotle’s question of how ‘becoming’ is possible in the sense of creation and change. He believed that ‘being’ is created from a compound of form (‘morphe’) and matter (‘hyle’). The collection “Hylemorph” questions the stereotypes and boundaries of gender identities, that is, gender as a social and cultural construct. The strength of fashion lies in its ability to shift meanings. Rather than just man and woman, it offers a diversity of gender identities. With its help, it is possible to cross boundaries in one’s self-expression and explore different nuances. It is a highly relevant everyday form of “doing gender”. And therein lies its queer potential. It has the ability to change our thinking and thus also our society.The starting point for this 20-piece gender-fluid menswear collection are the archetypes of classic men’s fashion and haute couture. In a move to create new forms for suits, culottes, shirts, polo shirts, blousons, coats and trenchcoats, the classic silhouettes are dissolved and implied only by seams, stratified or printed, whilst sections are inserted in pattern pieces. This experiment with the spatial impact of clothing paves the way for completely new perceptions.

Jury’s appraisal
Aylin Tomta has delved into the depths of pattern design to create perfectly crafted and sculpted garments with new details, individual fashion statements and sophistication: stylish, chic and cool! A powerful collection that is full of poetry. It invites the eye to linger and speaks to our emotions. Her exaggerated fashion overcomes tradition to conjure up a completely new and modern male image that is masculine without appearing affected or sliding into crossdressing. Although these are showpieces, they make the wearer feel comfortable and look good. The examination of gender as a social construct is at the heart of this work. Her understanding of fashion moves beyond heteronormative ideas where fashion is all about sexual, that is, heterosexual seduction. The documentation of the creative process and the fashion photos are among the best. It is very rare to encounter such a mature and on-point final project. It is also very pleasing and impressive to see how this extremely talented designer has evolved since winning the European Fashion Award FASH 2017. Again, this is very rare. Paris is calling! Member of the jury Carl Tillessen (Chefanalyst, Deutsches Mode-Institut)
