My final year collection explores the dynamic interplay between femininity and strength, resulting in garments that are both cool and distinctly feminine. This collection is a celebration of the modern woman who embraces her soft side while confidently showcasing her inner strength. A mix of different patterns infuses each piece with authenticity and individuality, which reflects my passion for my carefully sourced jacquards specially selected for this collection. The big, bold bows and ruffles add a playful sophistication, enhancing the feminine aesthetic while maintaining a sense of power and confidence. Another standout feature of the collection is my upcycled leather vest, adding an edgy contrast to the otherwise soft and coquette-inspired designs. The integration of this unique piece highlights the transformative potential of fashion, where old becomes new and strength is derived from reinvention. Through this collection, I aim to demonstrate that femininity is not only compatible with strength but also a source of it, including when it comes to our fashion choices. These garments empower the wearer, showcasing the beauty and power of embracing one's full identity.
