Chosen looks for mentor project with Ida Lamberton for @frame x @salvationarmyus
The direction was to take donated sweaters from Salvation Army and rework them into something new that referenced margiela, chanel and comme de garçon. I came up with two very different concepts one referring to the sculptural shapes of comme the other merging margielas deconstruction with Chanel’s little black dress.
