Originating from the premise that Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) enrich creative processes rather than diluting them, we describe an ongoing PhD project that proposes to study GANs in a co-creative context. By asking How can GANs be applied in co-creation, and in doing so, how can they contribute to fashion design processes? the project sets out to investigate co-creative GAN applications and further develop them for the specific application area of fashion design. We do so by drawing on the field of mixed-initiative co-creation. Combined with the technical insight into GANs' functioning, we aim to understand how their algorithmic properties translate into interactive interfaces for co-creation and propose new interactions.
