me for @eirinnhayhow ’s ss24 collection Into The Mystic: showcasing an alternative future, one in which we give ourselves back to the natural world, connecting to our ecosystem and the mycelium networks beneath our feet at @londonfashionweek 🧚🏽‍♀️ (and some bts including pre-rehearsal stretching) still can’t believe that my job for a day was to be a solarpunk fairy in my favourite place in central london (because it doesn’t feel like central lol): the phoenix community garden, soho 💚 @thephoenixgarden words below by @slwilson for @feelgoodwoo - full article on their website 💟 🩵This season, netted dresses were dyed with foraged nettles, trousers were made from coffee grain leather, tops from live moss, dresses were embellished with lab grown crystals and discoloured brown puffers were stuffed with valerian, lavender, grass and chamomile to promote calming, anti-anxiety properties. It’s as much a science experiment as it is a fashion collection. “I have some material science knowledge so I play around with the pH balance to extract the colour from foraged plants,” Eirinn explains. “I reuse the plant matter and the wastewater and turn them into biomaterials. Everything is circular.” At times, an eerie atmosphere descends on the show as models become more and more at one with the garden, like the last survivors of a climate apocalypse going back to living off the land because they have no other choice.🩵 credits xx designing, directing, foraging and science by @eirinnhayhow seamstress and studio assistant @seampixie art director @dream_safari pr @hakanposeidon @loveme_studios videography @jess_dadds artist and technologist (soundscapes, installation and speakers) @m___selby movement @dooeclo makeup @lush @jenhuntermakeup @suzieshambles @molly_mcardle_makeup @gaiapapaya_ hair @hayley_edwards_hair @lush_hairlab_daisy @_corinneviolette_ jewellery @_femmedefeu_ sculpture artist @katee_pm sculpture and creative assistant @art.robbo creative assistants (fashion) @gabrielmalinowski_ @adhanford knitwear assistant @geo_knits_slow creative and production assistant @riddhimasrani assistant styling and dressing @olympialjc @fengxinya3427 sponsors @lush @cleanco
