That is different between product design and critical design. Critical design is trying to bring out a question rather than to solve a question. In this case, it is trying to set up an animal abuse issue into fashion creation. In general, fashion design tend to how to make garments more comfortable and more flexible. But in this case, it’s trying an opposite way. First step, searching for images about animal abuse. Second, developing three concepts by those images. These three concepts as follows: no.1 control loose by ribbons; no.2 pattern change; no.3 use velcro, braid and elastic. By these three concepts to interfere user’s behavior, user will feel inconvenience and bound while user wears this collection. At final step, there is a wear experiments. Model will wear this collection, at the same time, film this process. By observing the video, checking the result and looking backward whether this collection would interfere user’s behavior or not. As the result, there are two concepts could answer the study question in this case and fit the purpose. that are concept1 and concept 3. Therefore, for the future study could continue to follow and extend these two concepts.
