At an intimate social gathering, the designer revealed 10 looks inspired by elements of nature from his upcoming AW23/24 collection. The pieces symbolized mother earth from water streams, blooming florals, and the fiery sun. Each article was delicately fabricated from entirely handmade materials including silk taffeta, wool, raffia and sparkling sequins. The combination of color and texture loudly conveyed the designer’s revelation for the collection.

The designer wanted to transport her from imaginary to reality, finally bringing her to life and showing you the exact steps taken in drawing the sketches. The aim behind it was to experience what many artists feel and sense as they try to envision the designs with their eyes closed. It is also all about the contradiction between reality and fantasy and how these two entities turned out chemically identical in our brains.
