The collection Memento Momentum is inspired by the corona period which we live in today. Memento means remember. Momentum means the force that keeps an object moving or keeps an event developing after it has started. The time we live in now can be a turning point in history if we don’t forget the things we learned from it.
A deadly virus roaming around, having to wear face masks, overcrowded hospitals, mass hysteria and fear: all things that should only be allowed to happen in sci-fi movies. Not in real live. The inspiration for the materials and silhouettes for this collection comes from these movies. I have chosen to use materials such as ropes coming from hay bales and carrot bags, which are quite ‘alien’ materials in the fashion industry. Other materials I used where deadstock sweaters and hoodies which were gifted to me by Poinst Made (@pointsmade ).
