Flatter Your Body Womenswear Collection

Flatter Your Body

Flatter Your Body is a womenswear collection of six looks created to suit different body types. The collection reinterprets the corset, a garment that was historically uncomfortable to wear. Each look has a slightly loose silhouette with lacing straps placed around the bust, waist, and hips. Tightening or loosening the straps in selected areas allows the wearer to adjust the shape of the garment. Stripe prints and pleats add an optical illusion that supports the flattering effect. Light wool, cotton, and wool crepe are used for the spring and summer season.

Temperature Clothing

Temperature

Color Change is a garment made from temperature-sensitive materials. The fabric changes color when it meets body heat, sunlight or the warmth of another person. Close contact such as a hug therefore becomes visible on the surface of the clothing. The pattern is cut to highlight the structural lines of the garment, and these lines are closed with adhesive tape. The tape does not react to temperature, so it stays fixed while the surrounding fabric shifts in color. The contrast between the two materials makes hidden changes in warmth easy to see.

Proof of Existence Womenswear

Proof of Existence

The colors and symbolism of the rainbow flag were the inspiration for this ready-to-wear collection. In addition to their design details such as box pleating and shirring, each powerful look also has its hand-made pendants and beads attached to the fabrics creating textures. This intense monochrome and the unique eccentric silhouette supported by the construction details offer interesting visual impressions. It's all about how creatively the design language is translated into clothing without sacrificing the construction details or aesthetics, suggesting fresh new looks.
