As a womenswear designer my recent graduate project delves into the profound connection shared by the Seawomen of South Korea and Japan, highlighting the impact of climate change on their traditional way of life. Across generations, these women have relied on the depths of the sea for their sustenance, thus free diving transcends mere employment. My aim was to bring attention to their challenges, raising awareness about the broader issues of ocean pollution. I advocate for more conscientious decision-making to combat this degradation. A visual exploration into the Seawomen's world revealed the indispensable role of wetsuits in shielding them from the rigours of their aquatic environment. However, amidst the ongoing degradation of our oceans, I warn of the looming threat posed by our collective negligence. Drawing inspiration from nature’s protective mechanisms I seamlessly integrated the concept of seashells into my designs, symbolising the urgent need for a fortified defence.
