ASCEND DESCEND

The concept behind the collection was to explore the suspense between life’s achievements and disappointments with inspiration taken from the sculptor Do-ho Suh. To capture the illusion of suspension with the ascension and dissension

of the staircase to represent the journey of life. The collection is constructed in a combination of bonded woven fabrics, bonded synthetics and moulded acetate.

Winner of the Student Designer of the Year Award, Golden Egg Irish Fashion Innovation Awards 2015.
