Study of Shapes

Focusing on shape, fit, finishing and the structure of the garments the collection is inspired by Anna’s artworks and study of shape. Study of Shapes is three dresses playing with the idea of negative space, a blazer with three-dimensional outstretching hips and a top with draped areas. Each look also has tights underneath and due to the transparency all the layers can be visible simultaneously. Fabric is a blend of sustainably and ethically produced Finnish reindeer leather mixed with leftover fabrics from old collections as well as laser cut samples from recycled swimsuits. A patchwork surface enables different materials in the same colour to be combined enabling easy use of leftover fabric to create interesting compositions with texture.
