Vulnerability and femininity are the inspirations for this collection. Femininity can give people the idea of being weak, too sensitive and not strong enough. Everybody has vulnerable and weak spots, which makes us humans, it's great to connect to our emotions rather than hiding from it. Until we are fully embodied with all the layers we have, then can we be truly fine with ourselves. I wanted to discover this idea for the collection, portray it with layers of fabrics from light to thick, from soft to hard, all the smocking pleats give the feeling of emotions coming out of our body, a sense of letting go with elegance….
