Capsule Collection
Concept
The collection explores an emotional journey from confinement to growth and liberation. Chrysalis forms suggest protection and inner stillness, while butterfly wings become symbols of emergence, softness, and self-expression.
Inspiration and Mood
Visual references include butterfly wings, translucent surfaces, healing rituals, shadowed colour palettes, soft illumination, and fabric movement that appears to breathe with the wearer.
Customer Profile
The target wearer is a modern, reflective, fashion-conscious woman who values emotional depth, craftsmanship, individuality, and poetic elegance.

Design Development
Design Development
The range develops asymmetric jackets, puff sleeves, draped dresses, flowy trousers, and layered translucent panels. Batik patches interrupt clean surfaces with organic marks, giving the collection a tactile and personal identity.
Final Outcomes
The final outcomes present a cohesive contemporary womenswear direction with emotional clarity, fabric-led storytelling, and a refined graduate portfolio standard.
