My collection
Inspired by travels to the world’s oldest living aboriginal culture in Australia, URBAN TRIBE is a 100% upcycled collection exploring the contrast in values and mentality of indigenous cultures and our consumer society. It is both a revolution and a celebration. A revolution of forgotten values and a fight against the way we overexhaust and control everything around us. A celebration of the human spirit and energy in our urbanized world, where the human soul wants to be freed. It is the celebration of awakening. By using only discarded waste materials and turning trash into treasure, the URBAN TRIBE collection is a textural storytelling, spreading the message about our wasteful unconscious living, and urging to be mindful in the modern world.
My inspiration
Being a very hands-on designer, I have always been drawn to textures, the story behind them and the feelings and sensations that surround them. Telling a soulful and powerful story through the designs is just as important as the final look of the garments.
My designs in three words
Textural. Soulful. Sustainable.
Models and look: Unique Models
