About

“I live in a region where owning something pre-loved or wearing garments with reconstructed fabrics are considered economically and socially inferior. As a designer I hope to educate more people about how valuable sustainable fashion can be, both environmentally and aesthetically.”

“Urban Mirage” rises from that very loom, a living tapestry of reclaimed camouflage and couture ambition. Its patchwork body pulses with history and futurism. Classic woodland prints yield to jagged pixels as though analog forest memories have bled through a corrupted display. Broad sweeps of painterly abstraction slip into regimented digital grids, evoking the glitching signals of a city drifting between analog past and networked tomorrow. Beneath these bold shields, semi-transparent olive mesh glimmers with human warmth, a reminder that utility and desire are woven from the same thread.
