Each of the collection's
hypnotic designs were based on optical illusion patterns, which typically
feature a palette of only black and white. "By building up the
patterns and then distorting them, the eye's perspective is tricked and
challenged to see new patterns occurring in between," said the designer. "Linear
shifts and sharp contrasts form the base of this innovative approach to
material development and pattern-making and challenge us to mind the system,
but to find the gaps." Among the 16-piece collection were garments
with distorted monochrome patterns. Each of these pieces was made from
synthetic fabrics hand-moulded into a three-dimensional shape.
