AW 2021 - OBLIGATED
This collection was inspired by the idea of complicated urban life, the home of a busy and fast pace lifestyle. Systems in the city forced people to move as it goes, a loophole to endless work, repeated tasks, and obligated responsibilities. These actions are almost instinctive to urban habitat, occupying a majority of an individual's time, whether they are voluntary or involuntary, it brings to question our choice of lifestyle.
This collection looks into the personal experiences of a hectic lifestyle, by visualising the experience on a body, how the garment manipulates the senses, with elements of bulkiness, heaviness, drag, weight, and restriction, challenging the ideas of “obligations”, encouraging self-discovery of value and life balances.
