HAVEN EST HEUS -
BY A SELFISH SPIRIT WHO ONCE SAW ME
COLLECTION / DIPLOMA2018The abyss of the idea rose from looking at the importance of death as a part of life. It is the end of an cycle. Everything has to end, giving room for new things. Like an emotion, constantly changing. In search of this new, something yet-to-have-form, you have to recognise something invisible. You will then feel something; a motivation for new ideas, a desire to make beautiful things that are not necessarily beautiful to everyone else, but they could well be something very scary. Beauty can come from the strangest of places, even the most disgusting of places. Everything looks perfect from a great distance. Following your own inspiration, never look to what to what others are doing.
I want to empower women. I want people to be afraid of the women, not in an misogynist way. Challenging the definition of pureness and gender norms. Putting an armour around her, and as she enters the atmosphere she burns off layer by layer. A very beautiful and psychological way of dressing.
I want the wearer of the clothes to be who they are.
