‘Keep Me Together’

A narrative collection exploring emotional transformation and self-discovery through intimacy, desire, loss and renewal.
It examines the intoxicating nature of romantic connection and its power to heighten desire, blur perspective, and reshape one’s sense of self.

Symbolic design elements translate emotion to form. Peony appliqués, representing deep love, appear alongside wet-like textured fabrics to evoke romance and emotional immersion. Sheer draping over exposed bodysuits expresses vulnerability, while raw edges reflect unfiltered emotion. Hidden faux flowers within bag linings, inspired by Japanese good-luck amulets, symbolise protection and unseen intention, while piercing details mark resilience, acknowledging that healing leaves traces.

At its core, each look sculpts a distinct emotional state into silhouette, texture, and structure.
