Carousel Collection

Fashion Illustration, Drawing, Fashion Design
Design Challenge:
Create a line of five pieces with a distinct theme that allows for a cohesive collection. Show preliminary sketches, decide on color, textiles, and illustrate each piece for the final lineup, giving a brief description of each.
Creative Solution:
This streetwear collection blends the decadence of 1920s Old Hollywood and Art Deco with a youthful, modern twist. Inspired by the vibrant colors and ornate forms of the iconic carousel outside my Florence apartment, the designs capture its free-spirited energy and timeless charm. Each piece incorporates bold silhouettes, rich hues, and intricate details that echo the elegance of the past while embracing contemporary street style. This collection preserves the carousel’s nostalgic magic, ensuring its influence continues to spin into the future.
