This dichotomy unfolds into a visual vocabulary where collarless, buttonless jackets with a vaguely Oriental cut are juxtaposed with ankle-length skirts, sheer tunics, and body-hugging knits crafted from ultra-fine yarns. Together, they evoke a sense of corporeality suspended between protection and vulnerability, essentiality and ornamentation. The collection explores the tension between geometric precision and deliberate formal disruption: garments introduce elements that challenge symmetry—asymmetrical straps, draped inserts, constructional shifts—articulating a logic of controlled instability. Double-faced fabrics alternate with transparent nets embroidered with small, brightly colored floral motifs, creating a continuous dialogue between density and lightness, opacity and transparency.
