concept

The collection was inspired by water and the solutions that people adopt to be protected or interact with natural elements. Eva researched kites, boats, raincoats, sails, inflatables and much more. Her hats made a playful yet wearable collection working on innovative and exciting silhouettes. Using recognisable elements and placing them in a new context, she succeeded in creating confusion and excitement. Without neglecting the colour palette and quality choice of materials making a desirable headwear a collection.
