Entry Description

Release Tension challenges the restrictive lines of conventional womenswear. Inspired by office wear patterns, I reinterpreted the princess-line dart—traditionally shaping and tightening the body—into a diamond rib knit that stretches and opens with movement. By combining rib structures with jersey, I created silhouettes that crease and flow naturally, replacing rigid contours with fluid lines. Developed with deadstock yarns and soft blends, the garments unite comfort, sustainability, and elegance, envisioning fashion as liberation rather than constraint.
