SHROUDS

SHROUDS

The sombre rituals of burial have inspired range of womenswear collection. I used huge sculpture-like knots as a signature design element throughout black and ivory collection. With a background in textile design I produced exaggerated padded creations to represent the way a body is tied in a traditional Muslim shroud. "My collection explores different elements of death and burial. The tying and untying of shrouds plays an important ceremonial role, so I decided to use knots as a focal point in some of my garments.
