Personal Psychogeographies of Garment Relationships is a participatory research project exploring how everyday environments shape people’s emotional relationships with clothing and practices of wear, care, repair, and retention. Through field journals, interviews, mapping exercises, photography, and participant-led documentation, the project investigates how spaces such as the home, workplace, commute, and neighbourhood influence embodied experiences of dress. Drawing from psychogeography and embodied experience, the research positions clothing not simply as products, but as emotional and spatial artefacts embedded within daily life. By visualising these relationships through maps, diagrams, and collaborative storytelling, Personal Psychogeographies of Garment Relationships aims to develop new ways of understanding the emotional and environmental conditions that inform our relationships with clothing.
