Roos Boshart (1992) graduated from the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague with a Bachelor in Fashion Design. With her graduation work she was selected to participate in Lichting 2017. At the academy, she has developed a fascination for the human body and all its complexities. By researching different ways of hiding and revealing the human body, she has created her own opinion about the role that fashion plays. In her latest collections she has been busy with translating this fascination for the human body into fashion and lingerie, using a very direct and conceptual visual language. Her way of working is driven by idealism, which results in statement collections where the concept is as important as the garments themselves. With all her work, she wants to trigger the audience to think about what they see, and create their own opinion. Even though her work may be raw and direct sometimes, she always adds a sensual touch.

Latest Collection

Cover your fake nudes but show me your real skin

“Cover your fake nudes, but show me your real skin”

This collection explores the boundaries of the human body. It’s a celebration of physicality in all its organic complexities and the sometimes contrasting sides of identity we show.
As an uncensored ode to sensuality, this collection praises the carnal instinct of the sexual human being in an honest but elegant way. Constructed from different layers of skin-imitating materials, searching for the moment where covered-up morphs into exposed.

Wearing this lingerie makes you fierce and confident, you are owning the sensualness of your body. The collection is both classy and sensual, but at the same time it has a touch of kinkyness and a raw and even surrealistic edge.

The collection has 7 looks, all in nude colors. The dominant color is a light gold, but there are also tones of beige, caramel, powder pink and some darker browns. All straps are hand dyed in an English Melange organic tea.
