This is a fashion collection for those who dare to wear bold colors and striking patterns!

Project

A playful collection of women's clothing based on bold color combinations along with a rich use of knitting technology, hand techniques such as crocheting and hand knitting using various yarns. Using the full capacity of the knitting machine, modern knitwear is created. At the same time, she is committed to sustainable design, as the entire garment is made locally and transparently using waste materials such as yarn and buttons. A hyper-local collection, a mixture of already known knitting techniques, but presented through vision of how we can design and wear interesting contemporary knitwear that will last for years. Also included in the collection are several handmade pieces that work in tandem with machine-made pieces, as well as recycled processed pieces made from different waste knitwear patterns assembled.

The Fall/Winter 2023 collection, brings together a range of different graphic patterns, yarn types and knitted structures that carry a strong and bold note throughout the whole knitwear collection.
