CONCEPT STATEMENT

M

otions of the Ocean a collection focused on representing the attributes of sea life in relation to femineity. The ocean is so rich with life and colour and is admired for its natural beauty. The soft textures of the sea life contrasting with the rough textures of the coral create a symbolism in relation to femineity and empowerment.

The silhouettes are fitted to allow comfort with movement and feel natural on the body and are decorated with modernised design features of open back details and short length skirts. The colour palette is extracted from the rich colours of the ocean that are bold and lively. The luxurious natural fabrications allow a soft look that contributes to the ideology of femineity and using such delicate fabrications and manipulating them in various ways, contrasts the idea of the social and traditionally façade laid upon women with the uprising personality of dominance and power.
