The moodboard

A palette to work from, not a rule to follow

Think animal print, reptile skin, coral texture, rust patina, raw wood grain, sequin, fringe, plaid, bioluminescence, and fur.

Fauna Chic

An invitation to explore the tactile and patterned qualities of animal fibers and skins. Transition from soft, fluid to rough, solid textiles for day to night, or intentionally combine contrasting textures throughout the day. Paying close attention to the haptic variations

Manipulation

Fabric manipulation that creates textural and spatial illusions, materializing your creative mindscape through techniques that hold and release tension throughout the day, emphasizing shape and movement.

Classical Avant-Garde

Metamorphose from timeless aesthetics to unconventional compositions for your day to night looks or vice versa; accent clean styles with bold accessories; emphasize alternative forms with restrained finishings.
