The Beauty of Designing Collars: Transforming the Look of a Garment

In the world of fashion design, every little detail matters. From the cut of the fabric to the choice of colors, everything plays a role in bringing a garment to life. However, one aspect of design often overlooked but tremendously impactful is the design of collars.

A collar is more than just a functional part of a garment; it can define the style, sophistication, and character of the entire piece. A well-thought-out collar design can transform a basic outfit into a high-impact, unique piece.

Types of Collars and Their Visual Impact

1. Classic Collars:

The traditional collar of a shirt or blazer adds a sophisticated structure that aligns the garment with a more formal look. In the reference image, we see a tailored collar with strong, defined lines. This type of collar conveys authority and elegance.

2. Asymmetrical or Sculptural Collars:

Asymmetrical or wrap-around collars, like those seen in recent haute couture collections, bring an element of surprise. The design in the second image is a perfect example of how a collar can be the focal point of the design, balancing structure and sensuality.

3. Folded Collars:

This type of collar creates a visual interplay between simplicity and complexity, as seen in the third image. By employing an architectural fold in the structure of the collar, the designer elevates the garment from classic to modern and avant-garde aesthetics.

How a Collar Can Change a Garment

The design of the collar directly influences how a garment frames the face and body. A high, structured collar, for example, draws attention to the face, projecting an image of confidence and control. In contrast, an open or draped collar can soften the overall look, giving a more relaxed and feminine feel.

Collars and Self-Expression

At Yujulandia, when we design a collar, we not only think about functionality but also about how each piece reflects the identity of the wearer. The collar of a garment is like the designer’s signature on the clothing: unique, intentional, and capable of completely transforming the perception of the look.

The power of an innovative collar design should never be underestimated. Whether it’s a formal shirt or a casual top, the collar can take a garment to new levels of elegance and originality.

In conclusion, the next time you look at a garment, pay close attention to the details in its collar. You’ll see how this small element can completely change the look of a piece and turn it into a true work of art.
