This look is part of a collection inspired by the Oceanpunk and Steampunk aesthetics. Developed using the upcycling technique, it transforms discarded denim garments into a new design through the deconstruction and reconstruction of fabric panels. Representing the "Disaster, Tragedy, and Catastrophe" family, the piece reflects the impacts of overconsumption and environmental degradation while proposing a new perspective on sustainability, creativity, and innovation in fashion.

"From the throne to the streets, from the past to the future." It embodies a vision of Contemporary Royalty, featuring a majestic silhouette, imposing detachable layers, and corsetry that evokes nobility. It reflects the memory of a lineage reborn through everyday textiles, transformed and elevated into haute couture. For this design, 20 damaged pairs of jeans destined for disposal were upcycled and given a new life, turning waste into a statement of creativity and sustainability. ♻️✨
This upcycled boro piece came from a pile of old clothes we just couldn’t let go of. It took us three weeks, lots of stitching and plenty of “should we add one more patch?” moments, to bring it all together. Everything is hand-stitched, so you’ll see the frays, the layers, and the little imperfections. Nothing about this piece was rushed, since this was made with intention and patience. Our small way of contributing to slow fashion. 💙

Crafted over two months, this piece is a humble tribute to the materials that others cast aside. By gathering scraps from my workshop and pairing them with rugged vintage denim, I’ve sought to honor the history of every thread. Through patient, hand-stitched rows and an asymmetrical design, I transformed simple remnants into a durable garment. This project is my quiet contribution to zero-waste—a one-of-a-kind creation born from hard work, steady hands, and a deep respect for the craft.
