Singing Silence :
My collection ‘Singing Silence’ is a quiet statement, about the environmental changes in northern Scandinavian winter, due to global warming. ‘Singing Silence’ illustrates a metamorphosis, in which the usually snow covered, white frozen landscapes are melting and evaporating. Using down and air as insulation I have created garments suitable for the “new winter”, the design challenge was to craft functional, dynamic clothing that could be easily adjusted and lightweight enough so that the whole collection can be packed into one 20 kg rucksack, however still remain feminine and glamorous.
