A fashion project has been created focusing on extinct animal species from the past year. This hoodie, for example, serves as a memento to the Guam Flying Fox. Red crosses symbolize the Red List of endangered animal species, while irony and black humor emphasize conservation urgency, like the phrase “Available after 2024.” “RIP” now signifies animals continuing to roar in heaven – or paradise. Although fictional, this project could raise awareness and support conservation if realized.

Layered on silk; digital repetition and haptic sensation; first in a series of wearable pieces.
This tag embodies the interplay between destruction and construction, presenting a fresh concept for those in need of inspiration. Conceptually, the work appropriates elements with a strong recognizable aspect and translates them into a new context. By using a familiar guiding system as a tool for communication, this manual gains a strongly accessible character, motivating a straightforward approach to creativity. The headpiece works as an example for translating this idea into reality.
This project questions the traditional narrative that places blame on consumers for the harmful impacts of fast fashion, rather than holding accountable the corporations and regulatory agencies responsible. The fashion industry has become synonymous with overconsumption and waste, yet the burden of responsibility is too often placed on the individual consumer rather than the companies producing these harmful products.
The clothing statement of the asimilar collection works as a metaphor of accumulated conformity, influencing the people’s judgment. Their opinion is subliminally controlled and changed to someone else’s gain. The inspiration taken from the movie They Live (1988, John Carpenter) illustrates the chosen concept and at the same time leads the clothing development process. The collection consists of 18 different silhouettes and works with selection of denim pieces.
Nexa is a hypothetical fashion journal documenting stories of designers, from inspiration to process. It focuses on the spirit of collaboration in the fashion industry. This special issue investigates the creative genius of Dutch designer–Iris van Herpen, along with a peek into the visual system for Nexa through other covers. The typographic treatment is inspired from the off-key and futuristic nature of Herpen’s designs. It is typeset in Rapidissima (Typotheque) and Canela (Commercial Type).
Old, broken jeans were repurposed by the designer for this submission. This resulted in a completely new outfit and accessories for the model to wear, as well as a complete alphabet made only from the remaining fabric.
In this ongoing textile-based project, Aiste explores identity and the weight of it that we all carry in the symbolic form of clothing labels. Every label in the ever-growing collection has been carefully removed and graciously donated by people in her community, symbolising the intimate connection between our understanding of self, our changing surroundings and the garments we wear.
The object “4339g” consists of Catholic hymn books and Bible leather covers from 1839 to 1970, some of which have been restored and then reassembled. Some of the books survived world wars and were companions of grief, pain, happiness, gratitude and hope. The patina of each individual book tells of this. The question of emotional value and the weight of our burden towards artifacts.
A big move towards fashion.
Information and facts related to fast fashion, ironically captured on a very common fast fashion item: the T-shirt. Using a laser cutter, the message is revealed by burning letters and shapes into the fabric, encouraging people to reflect on consumer habits and highlighting the importance of sustainability.
Collectively unsynchronized. The fine line between camaraderie and rivalry in competition.
“Humanistan” unites languages, scripts, and traditions through seams into a collage of unity and diversity.
This ongoing project explores the link between a letter, form and uniform. If a letter is a form, then a typeface is a set of smaller forms and uni-form by definition only means “a whole”. By this logic, the project claims that typographic systems, can also be presented with their own uniforms! The garment with its material resembles paper (on which we usually present type), the silhouette is reminiscent of a soldier and sewn from letter forms of a designed typographic system.
Mados Infekcija [Fashion Infection] does not seek to determine the trends of one or another season. It’s the biggest Lithuanian fashion festival happening each year in Lithuania since 1999.
This year event venue was chosen in church as fashion and the church are two inseparable poles throughout the ages.
Visual comes from 6 different synthetic generative images in sense of church interior while typography takes note on patterns, stained glass and window frame animation.
Coco Chanel said “Fashion is a language without words. It is a form of expression that speaks through fabrics, colors and silhouettes, just like words in a poem or a novel.”
Based on Man Ray’s iconic photography, she re-interpreted his timeless elegance. For the quote I have designed an original typography that screams the audacity and innovation of Chanel. My work pays tribute to her eternal legacy.
Puffer collection is a response to the fashion trend of puffer fabric. Pieces are embroidered with letterings that are linked to slang expressions of young people, such as Slay, Can’t ghost me or On fleek. The cut of the yellow vest mirrors the word slay, crafted from four letters S, L, A, Y.
The fashion collection “Textil” explores the boundaries between fashion design and communication design in a new way. Subtle text on clothing creates an interaction between typography, clothing and wearer. The black and white individual pieces become concrete poetry.
Fashion is not just about the clothes we wear, but also about the attitude and confidence we carry. The pig, adorned with gold earrings and applying lipstick, serves as a playful reminder that fashion is an expression of self, regardless of societal norms or expectations. The pig, adorned and content, serves as a metaphor for breaking boundaries and embracing one’s unique style.
Series of portraits of women who had a major role in the history of computing.
“Computers” used to design women whose job was to calculate, to compute. When the first computers were invented, women were put onto the machines to manipulate them. Once men grasped the potential of computing, they took over women’s place.
