Zaek Studio: Other Perspectives
The collection explores form and movement with a 360 ° experience through silhouettes and material combinations.
My degree collection is based on my archive as a designer and stylist, to which I have gone back in order to find a context for a design language and garment types. A large part of the inspiration is also taken from Iittala’s Alvar Aalto vase — its undulating shapes are a recurring theme in the collection, alongside silhouettes from the 70s and 90s.
A balance between wearable and less wearable informs the collection, alongside a combination of 2D and 3D shapes. The accessories are created in 3D printed PLA plastic, a degradable and thermoplastic polyester made from renewable resources. Couture techniques have been used throughout, in the form of duplication of dupion silk and silk organza, together with crystallisation of lace.
A collection for the fearless, who dares and wants to be heard and seen through their style, where authority and self-love are in focus. Garments and accessories for men and women, extravagant, sensual and playful, so as not to lose visibility. A collection that ensures that Zaek Studio’s DNA is introduced correctly and shamelessly.
