What can people expect from the Fitomorfosis collection?

You can expect a 12-look collection that explores a dialogue between human knowledge and plant life. The designs interpret organic structures as symbols of adaptation and permanence, transforming materials into forms that resist, evolve, and endure over time.  

What inspired the Fitomorfosis collection?

Fitomorfosis emerges from a silent dialogue between human knowledge and the essence of plant life. It reflects on the human ability to recognize, understand, interpret, and carefully transform life so that it can resist, adapt, and endure.

What textile techniques are used in Fitomorfosis?

The collection uses layered construction with laser-cut pieces to create volume, depth, and relief. Natural linen forms the base, while leather-like synthetic materials create the upper layers. Each opening and edge is manually frayed, combining industrial precision with organic handwork.
