Background
Sculptural Fashion Between Form and Function  

Designing for Connection

This project explores how sculptural, avant-garde fashion can balance visual impact with comfort, function, and emotional durability. Through digital tools like CLO 3D and Gravity Sketch, combined with hands-on material experimentation, the collection investigates how fabric manipulation and user-centred values can support lasting wear. It is designed for wearers who value both aesthetic expression and long-term relevance.
