Autonomous

THIS COLLECTION IS ABOUT BEING ABLE TO SELF EXPRESS WITH THE GOAL OF BECOMING COMPLETELY FREE IN YOUR CHOICES.
AUTONOMOUS IS FOR EVERYONE AND ANYONE, FASHION SHOULD NOT DISCRIMINATE.

I HAVE ALWAYS ACTED WITH THE BELIEF THAT FASHION IS A FORM OF SELF EXPRESSION AND SHOULD BE USED AS A TOOL TO EMPOWER.

BUILDING ON THE CONCEPT THAT OUR WARDROBE SHOULD WORK FOR US, WE HAVE CONTINUED WITH STATEMENT PIECES ADDING KILTS, SKIRTS, TROUSERS, DRESSES AND SHIRTS USING BOLD ANIMAL PRINTS ALONG WITH A PRINCE OF WALES CHECK TO A COLOUR PALETTE THAT IS QUIET WITH PUNCHES OF ELECTRIC BLUE , FLORESCENT PINK AND GRASS GREEN. TO BE WORN BY ALL.

THE MERE NOTION THAT CLOTHING CAN OR SHOULD BE GENDERED IS LUDACY. RUEDI
