Latest Collection

MUSUBU

Exploring the scope of experimental assertions, the proposed clothing pieces investigate the relationship between the material and the written, alphabetical forms, to emphasize the “private and public face of our identity”, exploring problems with imposed writing rules, gestual expressiveness, personal and creative fantasy.

The COLLECTION aims to address the theme of identity, suggested as a way of expressing uniqueness and personal sufficiency, trying in a recurring way to answer the question: can the people’s surface ever harmonize with what is in their minds?

Presenting accidental joints between layers of felting wool, tulle, reusable cloth and written gesture, the Musubu collection includes clothing and an open exploration for future projects.
