Beloved Bodies: A Composition of Stories and Resources About Garment-Making

Beloved Bodies is a design research, project and personal pursuit to answer, “how might we ensure the visibility, saftey and conciousness of the gender expansive community in garment-making”.

This body of work centers the voices of Trans and Non-binary people’s experience around navigating garments and garment making.

In launching Issue 1, this project kicked off in March 2025 with a community call sent up and down the east coast calling on designers and the stories for geneder expansive community.

The creation of this zine was printed and designed at Snakehair Riso Artisit Residency in Providence, RI in May, 2025
