A removable pannier skirt adds dramatic volume to the silhouette and a back slit for easy movement.

This collection explores the primal, untamed energy of femininity and its deep connection to water as a life-giving force. Inspired by sacred anger—a transformative, protective energy—it seeks to dissolve boundaries between the human body and nature’s elements. Garments become extensions of the wearer, embodying the fluidity of waves, echoing the depth of oceans, and the songs of mermaids.
