I can't breathe is a conceptual womenswear collection shaped by my experience with PCOS. Through draping, natural dye and material experimentation, I explore the tension between restriction and release, fragility and strength. Stretch jersey, distressed silks, raw edges and hanging threads reference themes of concealment, hair loss and emotional exposure, while warm neutral tones and deep plum red create a dark romantic atmosphere. The collection reflects the body as both a source of struggle and resilience, honoring the quiet strength of women's bodies.
