For this collection, I was inspired by nature, a tool for visual exploration that I perceive as random, strange and unconventional. I have thus constructed my ideal landscape: a wild and luxuriant setting with bright colours in which my silhouettes are camouflaged through a chic outdoor wardrobe for a woman who is relaxed and concerned about the world around her. A modern collection to travel outside of time, comfortable and protective to face the climatic variations. A living picture, animated by these silhouettes with a somewhat sculptural appearance, drawn with my camouflage colour palette. Like a painting in movement, the patterns and textures applied by touches translate the aspect of a strange, unusual, almost extraordinary environment of flora and fauna.

I have constructed the ten silhouettes as an ensemble punctuated by the movement of the seasons. Created from vintage pieces from the men’s utility wardrobe that I transformed through proportions, cut and materials. The lines are long, pure and with some sexy and elegant details that sublimate the female body. Mohair and silk are combined with my signature material developed from recycled garden hoses and transformed into thin plates with surprising colours.

It took me two years to develop it. The search for the raw material was long, and I contacted many companies. The Gardena garden tool company believed in my project and offered me a stock of defective garden hoses. From this new material, I made a whole range of accessories – hats, bags and belts with leather-like finishes.
