INSTABILITIES
The ‘me’ I want others to see by Klara Valkova
The concept of collection „INSTABILITIES: The ‚me‘ I want others to see“ is based on my experience (my feelings) coming from the surroundings I grew up in. I became aware of the clash between clothes as fixed stable objects with familiar shapes and meanings, and the fast changing faces of fashion in the world at large.
I studied clothes to the point where I stopped judging people by what they are wearing. I want to provide my woman with clothes freedom of expression. She decides how to wear them. She sets the limits. She loves to explore herself. Modern.Powerful.Elegant.
The collection presents 8 different looks. It is about new shapes, variable clothes, nonstability. The patterns are reduced to abstract shapes, basically a piece of fabric that can be folded in any way one likes. Clips are used as construction features. It gives the collection its sense of passing (temporality) and instability. The choice of strong primary colours in blocks is a reference to the way we very often think, about our lives, other people, clothes… In closed „boxes“ of imagination and prejudices with certainly predetermined meanings.
