concept

Aspiring to create a collection similar to a piece of jewellery. Captivated by birds and feathers and looking to interpret those natural forms in an innovative way. Using embroidery, felt wool fabric, shiny leather and silver chains she creates jewels which hold the whole outfit together and resemble feathers. The feel is organic but at the same time mechanical and futuristic, combining high fashion with street wear, and expensive materials like leather and feathers with jersey and denim.
