Project Overview

Solum In the delicate intersection of light and shadow, the soul takes root in the cracks of the earth and returns. Here, time loses its meaning. Every ending is the birthplace of another beginning. Transformation is not an event; it is a rhythm, calm and endless.In the delicate intersection of light and shadow, the soul takes root in the cracks of the earth and returns.

Concept & Inspiration

In the delicate intersection of light and shadow, the soul takes root in the cracks of the earth and returns. Here, time loses its meaning. Every ending is the birthplace of another beginning. Transformation is not an event; it is a rhythm, calm and endless.

Design Process

From scribbled memories to a tailored silhouette.

1) Ideation

Words, photos, diary fragments. Mapping feelings into shapes and textures.

2) Sketch & Silhouette

Tracing converging lines, experimenting with length, proportion, and flow.

3) Draping & Pattern

On-form drape, then clean patternmaking translating chaos into clarity.

4) Construction

Seams with meaning, hidden boning, hand finishes, and mindful lining.

5) Editorial & Styling

Narrative lookbook: light, movement, and memory in motion.
