    Ilmonen’s collection consisted of garments made of identical squares of richly colored fabric, connected with buttons or fabric loops along the seams. This meant all the clothing in her collection, appropriately named Same Same but Different, could be re-shaped any way the wearer wishes. The dresses can continue to change, the designer has explained, rather than be discarded.
