The gather skirt is for an urban scavenger. It is made entirely
of pockets created from gathers in the various fabric sections,
and has magnets mounted on the bottom layers. As one wanders the
urban landscape, the skirt collects metal scraps and remnants. These
gathered metal bits are then sorted into the various pockets by
size and type. The skirt is intended for use on sites of construction
and destruction- places of flux whose presence is constant in the
city.
