SEASKIN

SEASKIN is a Spring/Summer 2025 collection that captures the fleeting beauty of coral reefs and their inhabitants through light, texture, and motion. Exploring fragility, transformation, and perception, it fuses organic fluidity with structural experimentation and textile artistry. The result is a poetic expression of fashion as living sculpture, where art meets imagination.

Inspired by the darting motion of reef fish, this look explores fluidity through precision. Seam lines follow the body’s natural flow, creating a sculptural silhouette that shifts with movement. Crystals evoke the glint of scales under water, catching light like flashes of life beneath the surface.

Referencing the scalloped shapes and natural architecture of the seabed, this look combines structural form with embellishment. The pleated, shell-like top nods to the organic geometry of underwater landscapes, while the beaded tassels evoke the release of coral spawn, an unseen event that speaks to time, renewal, and rhythm beneath the waves.

This piece captures the suspended motion of kelp and the delicate stillness of seahorses. Layers of light organza drift like seaweed in the current, creating transparency and rhythm in movement. Despite the fluidity, the structure remains anchored by the beads and colour, balancing motion with quiet strength.

Drawing from the ethereal movement of nudibranchs, this look celebrates translucency and bold colour interaction. Layered, overlapping forms mimic the creature’s flowing anatomy, while hand-painted and dotted surface details reference its vivid, otherworldly patterns seen up close in the ocean
