MY MOODBOARD OCTAVIA CHIRU
“A NEW CHAPTER:002 – THE SKY AND THE EARTH”

by INA BORCEA

A collection through which I felt the need to merge with nature in all its aspects.

First and foremost, nature was my muse and provided me with freedom of expression. I closely studied the three natural kingdoms – animal, vegetable, and mineral. Each piece in the collection explores an organism or an inanimate element, which is then abstracted through the filter of my vision. This merging of nature and collection was achieved through materializing the garments – I offered them shapes, shades, textures, and the quality of being sustainable.

I used natural, biodegradable, and organic materials, carefully woven in Romania. The pieces are made to order, following the principles of slow fashion. Additionally, I introduced ceramics, another natural, biodegradable material, as an unconventional element to the textile pieces. From ceramics, I handcrafted the buttons, bags, and jewelry. I wanted each piece to be unique, specially crafted for the wearer.
