Beauty of Tears
Fabrics such as pearlescent double gazar, faux tweed, and organza with fiberglass embroidery give the collection a unique texture. These materials add a sense of movement and emotional depth. The “moulage” technique creates sculpted, flowing volumes, symbolizing the fragility and strength of human emotions.
