 About the Fashion Film

A layer of melancholy reverberates in the details of delicately pressed flowers slowly blooming, symbolizing that you are unsure of yourself and people’s opinions about you matter. As the film progresses, the veil slowly starts unravelling; symbolism of confidence, and the clothes showcase that growth. (The softer palette becomes darker, and silhouettes become stronger and bolder. The flirty and fun tulle ruffle skirts shift to Khaki trench coats with scallop detailing and boiler suits with a scatter of pressed flowers in their full bloom. 

A variety of silhouettes and embroideries explored to showcase each phase of growth.. The opposing dichotomy in silhouettes and palettes merge seamlessly in conveying an honest feeling – one of acceptance. In the end, it’s about knowing who you are and being content with yourself. It’s not about reaching the finish line or ticking everything from a checklist; if you’re happy with yourself midway, then that’s your finish line.
