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.

If so, do you have old jeans that you would love to transform into art?
This set was created from a thrifted sweater and fabric I had stashed away for years. I used the fabric to add puffed sleeves and matching shorts, then finished the front bodice with leftover trims. Even the original sweater sleeves were saved for another project.
