Simplicity & Introspection
In a chaotic world, ACROMATYX finds inspiration in simplicity and introspection. The “Modern Poetry” collection is an exploration of inner beauty and fragility, articulated through fashion that speaks without words. The collection showcases the wearer’s delicate and feminine side, embracing vulnerability and celebrating the beauty in life’s imperfections. The design elements, such as the use of delicate fabrics and intricate detailing, are a visual representation of this concept.

The garments in “Modern Poetry” reflect this philosophy. Seams, like scars, connect pieces of fabric, symbolizing the protective and transformative power of clothing.
The collection combines both unfinished and carefully crafted pieces, offering a futuristic vision that exposes the essence of the garments and the process behind them.
On the runway, models walked to electronic music that matched the collection’s mood. The palette, predominantly black and ending in bold silver, highlighted the collection’s dramatic and sophisticated vibe, leaving the audience impressed. The intricate designs and the vibrant atmosphere drew them in, and they responded with enthusiastic praise and admiration.
