Dr Pia Interlandi is an academic at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, where she completed her PhD "[A]Dressing Death: Fashioning Garments for the Grave" in 2012. Her practice-led research traverses between the fashion and funeral industry where she specialises in co-creating garments and death rituals for body care and dressing conducted by the family. She has dressed over 150 individuals and has been called on for specialist body care and bereavement casting. A regular contributor to public discourse on creativity at end of life, Pia uses the tools of fashion to address rituals and realities of dying, death, disposal and dispersion. She discusses the 'power of fashion' to create transformative human experiences.
