Created for a fashion show themed around the ocean, this piece combines punk and gothic influences with mystical, spiritual imagery. The design was inspired by a cloudy beach atmosphere: the denim and metal details bring a raw punk aesthetic, while the flowing skirt evokes the movement of ocean waves. The entire look was made from donated, second-hand, and leftover materials. The base was a donated black dress, combined with a black-grey denim pair of trousers and scraps of grey plaid fabric and dark blue denim from previous projects. The upper part was reconstructed into a structured denim vest, while the remaining denim and scraps were transformed into a matching bag. To strengthen the connection to the sea, we used a fishing rope found on the beach as a belt. Chains and eyelets were added as punk details, bringing the final look closer to our own identity while giving discarded materials a new life.
This is what Old Jeans can offer: a unique designer garment that is both priceless and timeless. It’s a sustainable yet fashionable piece. The black and gray color scheme beautifully balances the faded areas, transforming the wear of the jeans into art. Meticulously stitched, it's crafted with precision, as if the life of the garment truly depends on it. Would you wear something like this? If so, do you have old jeans that you would love to transform into art?
When I first found these ukay-ukay (Filipino thrift shop) bags, they were old, damaged, wrinkled, and full of holes—the kind most people would simply leave behind. But I saw something worth saving. I brought them home and spent thousands of hours hand-sewing them, stitch by stitch, turning what was once discarded into a one-of-a-kind multi-pocket jacket. I added a detachable hood, a detachable backpack, and details that make the piece both playful and functional. Every stitch, scar, and imperfection tells a story. And in many ways, so do I. This jacket was inspired by the everyday struggles of my own life. It reminds me that things—and people—can be overlooked, worn down, or left behind, yet still have value. I didn’t just make a jacket. I gave something forgotten a new life.
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.
Woven Legacy transforms discarded denim into wearable art. The handwoven sando is made from denim side seams, the mermaid skirt is crafted from reclaimed denim waistbands, and the dramatic cape is assembled from denim patchwork. Every detail gives new life to textile waste, celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and sustainability while proving that fashion can turn discarded materials into timeless couture.
"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. ♻️✨
