ABANDONED
The slow corrosion and disintegration of our man-made elements - exploring the shadow of their former glory and the state of 'in-between', reflecting the dilapidation process by introducing worn down and vandalised detailing alongside the hardness of denim and semi-structured silhouettes, staying true to the ruins as a result of age or neglect.
'Abandoned' is a ready-to-wear gender-neutral streetwear line with a mid-luxury price point (S$120 to S$350); by introducing contemporary textile manipulation to the ruggedness of traditional denim, it celebrates the process of retrograde while breathing new life into the once forgotten.
