D E S F I O S
Freely translated as ‘shreds’, the desfios project consists in a collection of patterned tights and fashion editorial. Developed for my bachelor final project, it is a reflection on human mood based on the expression ‘bad hair day’. Exploring women’s behaviour and style, I used real hair as mean to develop the patterns.
