Breath of the Glacier

Breath of the Glacier is a fashion collection made from biodegradable polyester fiber synthetic leather and faux fur. The fabrics are treated by hand to mimic the textures of melting glacier surfaces. The patterns are pieced together manually to replicate the crisscrossing forms of glacial landscapes. Loose, oversized silhouettes recall the scale of glaciers, while varying shades of blue highlight their vastness and fragility. Zero-waste cutting and dyeing methods reduce material loss and environmental impact. The collection seeks to raise awareness about glacier preservation.
