DRIFT
Wooden elements function as protective talismans. Marked by age and wear, they carry the evidence of time while acting as a shield for the wearer, guarding what is held closest to the body.
Gathered silk jersey sport gown with leg hole cut out that loops around the knee. With built in mesh body suit and backless drop. Alongside a CNC-wood cut bag developed alongside industrial Paul Howell, who modeled the shape on rhino, while I began sanding handwork onto the body, finishing it with a navy suede lined compartment.
Asymmetric tech shirt - With wrap collar and thumbhole detail.
Water resistant trench with wrap vent scarf, and washed wrinkled jeans.
Bandsaw cut shank pendant, and reclaimed bell and pouch necklace.
Driftwood Collar, This look features collected pieces of driftwood, glossed, drilled and chained onto a cream reclaimed buckle leather bomber, and flocked denim jeans.
Points of entry in unexpected places create the illusion of a shifting garment, disrupting the leg line, the leg-hole skirt creates a sense of movement and instability as the garment appears to shift around the body.
Bias cut three tiered silk chiffon dress with laser cut stencil air brushing, used to mimic age and driftwood motifs. Reclaimed leather belt with wooden band saw cut utility buckle to create drape across the chest, with matching customized wooden orb heels.
