text by Sebastián Kaufmann
Jessica Trosman is the living embodiment of Descartes’ spirit. Medullarily connected to the Carthesian scientific method, she made of JTbyJT an extension of the very philosophical principle that weaves together the fibre of a lifetime devoted to creation.JTbyJT was Carthesianism taken to method and research. To form and function. To theory and practice: How to deliver a dress that can be worn in at least four different ways? Is it viable for the same garment to serve completely different people? What is the evolution of the human shape?
From questions of this kind to probes into chemical reactions and architectural structure drove Jessica Trosman forward along her JTbyJT period. The rigour of systemic doubt and the satisfaction of empirical testing have delivered, throughout JTbyJT´s collections, a rare result: Fashion from a unique and individual perspective, albeit bringing together an exceptionally diverse range of admirers.
