This collection examines how artisanal fashion blends contemporary trends with traditional craftsmanship, celebrating imperfection and visible mending as central to creative expression. Imperfection is positioned as a source of inspiration, guiding the design process, and shaping garments through an aesthetic that values trace of damage. The mending process transcended mere functionally, evolving into an intimate exchange where materials themselves dictated the final form, guided by the golden threads of repair. The collection is not just a showcase of fashion but a living tableau of transformation—a visual symphony that resonates with the rhythms of nature and human spirit.
