CONCRETE
Concrete is a collection consisting of looks made with stiff fabrics to create a form of tailoring within the garments. The collection is inspired by contour lines of topographies and the structures that are in buildings. Throughout the collection, I tried to incorporate different ways to translate the topographies visually, from top stitching, to layering fabrics to bring forward the elevations of the ‘garment’. In order to achieve the shape and feel of the collection, I used leather, wool and a touch of silk for some contrast within the collection. My collection is for a boss woman who knows who she is and owns whichever room she decides to walk into. When designing this collection, I pictured someone like Rihanna to wear to the MET Gala or some red carpets.
