This chapter explores the initial openness to transformation with CONTACT, expressed through knitwear that stretches, adapts and moves with the body. RESTRAINT, made from leather, introduces stiffness and structure to resistance.

Part I: IMPRINT

This look represents the moment when change feels uncomfortable and our instinct is to hold back.

Look II: RESTRAINT

Raw

This look embodies the chaos of self-doubt. An ongoing cycle of questioning and vulnerability.

Look III : TURMOIL

Contrast explores the shift from tension to clarity. Stretch fabrics and fringe continue through both looks, carrying movement while showing its evolution. TURMOIL shows the chaos of self-doubt, with scribbled prints and long fringe emphasizing hesitation and instability. RESOLVE redirects that motion through compression, exaggerated sleeves, and shorter fringe, bringing control and focus.

PART II: CONTRAST

RED STILL MOVES

A study of strength in silence.
