Designer

As a designer who mainly works with second-hand denim and unused fabric scraps, I decided to apply the same sustainable concept in this project. The blouse is constructed from two different types of denim, intentionally combined to create contrast in tone and texture. By joining these fabrics together, I wanted to highlight the beauty of reclaimed materials and show how differences in shade can create visual interest and depth. The patchwork approach emphasizes individuality, as each fabric piece carries its own history.In this design, I also wanted to emphasize the contrast between sharp horizontal and vertical lines and more fluid, floating curved forms. The structured lines create a sense of stability and strength, while the curved elements introduce softness and movement. This interaction between geometry and flow adds visual tension and balance to the overall silhouette.The pants are based on an existing denim garment that has been slightly redesigned and altered. Instead of creating a completely new piece, I chose to modify and improve what already existed, reinforcing the idea of sustainability and reducing waste.
