This project seeks to promote peace and discourage war and armed conflicts through the incorporation of militaristic style and colours into art and everyday clothing. Drawing from a Kazakh heritage influenced by war, the designer showcases traditional ornaments as decorative elements and utilizes this as leather-plated Armor. The colour palette features green, symbolizing peace, nature, rest, and security rather than serving camouflage purposes. Inspired by the renowned Dame Vivienne Westwood and her anti-war activism, the silhouettes in this collection embrace the spirit of her iconic 80s designs. It is important to note that this project does not align itself with any particular side involved in the Ukrainian war. Instead, the designer empathizes with Russians, Ukrainians, and Kazakhs, all deeply affected by the conflict, and condemns the senseless violence between these fraternal nations.
