Items used:

  • EXCELLA®
  • Grosgrain Tape

Explanation of work:
The piece expresses the concept of “nomads of the desert” through decorative elements such as belts that transform into bags and zippers, based on the belief among nomads that “decorations worn and carried are a form of wealth.” It also aims to convey a message through traditional ethnic attire in response to today’s trend of treating clothing with little care.
