Project Concept

CONCEPT

A golden turtleneck dress bursting with joy and quiet defiance. The fringe hem sways like sunlit movement — laughter that refuses to be silenced. The matching wide-brim hat crowns the wearer with dignity. This piece is an ode to warmth, to the love that persists even through injustice, to the memory of golden afternoons shared between sisters.

Garment Details

Oversized amber turtleneck dress with long bishop sleeves. Tiered fringe hem with rust-colored crochet trim. Matching woven wide-brim hat with raffia banding. Tree branch embroidery at the hem line.

02 · TECHNIQUES
