Titled Asylum, the collection explores the rhythm of
restriction by scratches, scars and
stitches on the skin, body braces and athletic tape coiled around arms and
legs..
Proportions push and pull.
Dimensions meet and diverge.
Wide, desolate hospital corridors and angular shadows
inspire a larger, languid silhouette for tunics and winter coats.
Thick rough bandages wrapping heads and masking identities
translate into volumes delimited yet energetic.
Taut body gloves are worn over wide leg trousers and sportif
jackets have elongated, exaggerated sleeves.
Elbows are spliced open
Skinny trousers are split at the knee or corseted against
the torso
Fuzzy, dimple, crisp – textures are taken from torn, soft
leather and papers left folded and aged over time.
Rich felted wools and pitted technical fabrics are paired
with fluffy mohair and easy cotton suiting.
Colours are polar white, heavy black and bruise.
