This collection celebrates the deep connection between women and nature, drawing inspiration from trees as symbols of strength, resilience and ancestry. Just as tree roots intertwine with the earth to anchor themselves, hair, the visible soil of identity, connects women to their essence, carrying memories and stories that span generations. The chosen colour palette refers directly to nature, with earthy tones that evoke the depth of the soil and shades of green that capture the vitality of leaves and cycles of renewal. Using textile manipulations and techniques such as draping, each piece in the collection is designed to reflect the textures and layers of nature, creating organic shapes, as if they were fabrics that grow and flourish, moulding themselves to the female body, as if both were one.
