Celina Parmar

Collection

Remember/Reinforce

This thesis delves into the intricate interplay between architecture, memories, and human emotions, as manifested in a fashion collection inspired by the principles of construction. Shaped by a childhood surrounded by construction sites , the designer perceives building processes as mirroring the complexities of emotions: both possess layers, depth, and hidden intricacies. Emotions, like structures, often present a stoic exterior, concealing nuanced layers of sentiment within. The artist is reminded of her memories with her father visiting these sites and the emotions evoked by it, brings her grief and strength at the same time. 
The showcased collection endeavors to illuminate the multifaceted textures and layers that compose the human experience. Employing fabric manipulations and materials evocative of construction, such as smocking and elements resembling solid structures, the designer fuses softness with rigid structure. Through this amalgamation, the collection conveys a poignant message: despite the fractures within our emotions, the act of weaving them together with the thread of memories renders us resilient and stronger than before.
