step into the ethereal world – where fairy tales dive beneath ocean cliffs coral reeves and with the crashing waves above
Through transparent fabrics and partial embroidery the whole body gets enclosed and transformed into a hybrid of corporeal form, fabric and otherworldly
inspired by the textures of flotsam found on the beaches of Nabeul, Tunesia – each detail a reflection on the intricate beauty of an underwater landscape
The digital and transfer prints are inspired by flushed edges of rivers and oceans which flow into small, colorful ramifications.

The collection plays with femininity by consciously revealing parts of the body proposed to be taboo and enhancing parts of the body viewed as powerful, taking the silhouette and creating drama within it
Each of the 450 porcelain scales lazer-cut and bent to mimic the contours of an oyster shell. hand colored with cobalt oxide they were twice burned and glaze-finished in a kiln (furnace oven) and then individually hand sewn onto the garments.
