Religion is the establishment of a human system of laws and rules based on the belief that there exists a superhuman order.
The rules for designing my women collection are dictated by artificial intelligence (AI) that has taken the place of the superhuman God. The inspiration for my graduation project is religions as well as cults, based on the belief that eventually, all cults and religions revolve around the same idea. Although the rules vary from religion to religion, all religions have similar characteristics that seek to disconnect believers from the external world.
The use of uniform in cults is essentially a spiritual use – uniforms serve as a new starting point.
Through AI, I created a new starting point for designing the collection; ‘AI Mashup’ blends indistinguishably between clothing marks of different religions and cults. This mix created a new world, from which I designed the collection and its prints.
The fabrics in the collection are light and natural, in order to create a heavenly look.
