DOTS (don't overthink the spots)

Inspired by the struggles of acne, the deliberate focus on polka dots symbolizes the transformation of imperfections into individuality, playfully showcasing how they can be portrayed to highlight one's quirkiness and charm. This collection was created for my Advanced Diploma in Fashion Design Graduation, which was judged based on the creativity of concept and commercial viability.
