Thank you @scadfashiondesign for selecting my bag to be featured in this year’s runway. It’s an unreal feeling to have my first bag design featured in the runway as a sophomore, especially alongside the work of the incredible @benedict.ws
Also a special thanks to @artistrybyal for having me wear my modified design of these winter boots while modeling her look.
I am beyond grateful for being declared a winner of the 2025 Global Footwear Awards.
Thank you @globalfootwearawards for this incredible acknowledgement. As an independent designer and student, awarding my most passionately designed project of 2025 could not feel more rewarding.
Thank you to everyone who assisted me throughout the process of creating these shoes.
Especially, thank you to @benoit_meleard for pushing my design, and giving me these opportunities to excel.
This is just the beginning. Thank you for believing in me and following my journey. I love you all.

ENGINE bag
NFS
The engine, the heart of a vehicle. This bag follows futurist-steampunk design style while maintaining inspiration from a ribcage. This exoskeleton in meant to protect whatever is in the bag from any damage when dropped. The distribution of force and shock absorption through the tubes and wires allows for protection from standard human drop heights. Bag has been drop tested with large class cups. Lined with a thick canvas, the outer material is double layered nylon mesh which creates a gorgeuos reflective visual texture. Made for a class project with material experiementation and technical design exploration.
Happy holidays
