TENDRIL S/S
Tendril captures the overlap between masculinity and femininity, and is inspired by the perfectly bisexual flower, the orchid. The loose and flowing silhouettes of the collection’s garments mimic the soft shaping of petals, and are enhanced by embellishment with natural materials such as shells. Embellishment over the chest of both masculine and feminine garments invites the viewer to consider how similar areas of the body are perceived depending on sex and gender expression.
