Imago

The butterfly's adult stage, or imago, is defined by its wings, covered in scales that create vibrant patterns. This collection draws parallels between butterfly wings and a woman’s body, adapting their shapes and layering to create bold, elegant garments.

The designs feature sharp, defined shapes inspired by butterfly curves, with minimal seaming to enhance the concept. Layered fabrics, cut into scale-like pieces, mimic the texture of butterfly wings.

A contrast of stiff and lightweight fabrics captures the fluidity of butterflies in flight. The color palette, inspired by butterfly hues, reflects strength and confidence, similar to the bright, toxic colors of certain species.

Feminine yet strong, the collection reimagines the butterfly as a symbol of empowerment, offering a more nuanced vision of femininity. Each piece is for an imago: a fully realized individual, embodying grace and strength.
