The integration of objects implies an agreement with certain environmental criteria, primarily with volumetric and formal ones, but also with various structural aspects such as color, texture or relief. In this sense, the analysis of the art objects and their function as a temporal framework, the identification of the socio-cultural environment in which they evolved, whether we consider the universal art, completes the definition of the state of the textile object in the contemporary circuit. In this context, the approach to textile materials from an aesthetic and utilitarian perspective mainly involves the analysis of the interior and exterior ambient space, the artistic message, but also the social impact. 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repository.utm.md/handle/5014/28371 Transformation of the motifs of M.

Self-presentation by means of costume styling OVAKIMIAN, Laura The phenomenon of personal self-presentation is widely used in both the business environment and in everyday private life. A person has a certain idea of his or her own self-presentation, which he or she relies on when communicating with different people, participating in business events, choosing a style of dress, communication and behaviour. Along with an intuitive idea of self-presentation, there is a purposeful work on image formation aimed at positioning a person in society, in a particular professional circle. Self-presentation of a person is of great importance in the process of socialisation and allows a person to tune the environment to a certain vision of his or her personality image that meets professional goals. The social status of the owner of a suit is expressed mainly through its quality, silhouette, additions and accessories. It is known that a straight silhouette characterises a person with a high status, and one that emphasises the shape - with a low status. However, in a democratic society, a leader can sometimes change his or her image, for example, to maintain an informal atmosphere at a meeting or negotiation. When it comes to self-presentation in a professional business environment, the most expressive type of costume is often «Power Dressing», a fashion trend that enables women to assert their authority in the professional and political environment. 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z
