Our world tends to be very realistic and rational: office jobs, schedules, bills.
An emotional person, like me, is often perceived as childish, unpredictable, messy, and irresponsible and is expected to grow up and adapt to society.
I had hoped that my studies would turn me into a “serious” person, but all my efforts only led to mistakes.
The collection is a humorous tribute to my personal journey at Shenkar where I finally learned to turn my flaws into my source of pride.
The collection is based on a single task:
To make a button-down white shirt.
a simple task, but a challenge for me.
The collection consists of a sequence of mistakes that instead of correcting and hiding, I accepted and celebrated.
I used hand knitting to search for creative solutions.
The project examines the boundaries of the buttoned-down white shirt and seeks the freedom within them. the freedom to create, to make mistakes and to be myself
