LIKE MANY PIECES IN THIS COLLECTION WE WANTED TO CREATE A STAPLE ITEM AND PUSH IT FURTHER INTO SOMETHING ALIEN. FOR THIS GARMENT/ COLLECTION WE LOOKED TOWARDS NATURE TO INSPIRE US TO CREATE FORMS OF THE FUTURE. WE WANTED THIS HOODIE TO METAMORPHOSIZE, ADAPTING TO THE WEARERS NEEDS AS THEY NAVIGATE THEIR WORLD, WHETHER IT BE BLENDING IN OR STANDING OUT IN OUR SOCIETY. THIS HOODIE CAN CONVERT INTO A PONCHO-LIKE GARMENT COMFORTING THE WEARER, OR PEELING ITSELF AWAY FROM THE SKIN LIKE A COCOON TO REVEAL THE HUMAN FORM. ALTERNATIVELY THIS GARMENT CAN BE LEFT AS A HOODIE TO ACT AS CAMOUFLAGE IN A SEA OF CONFORMITY.
