In a world where rampant waste and overconsumption prevail, I envision a future in which we may evolve through symbiotic or parasitic relationships that facilitate essential genetic adaptations. "The Host" is a knitwear collection inspired by these themes. It interprets them through generally simple silhouettes, enhanced with trims, appliqués, and innovative fiber development, resulting in a more raw form of expression.
