Garment Inspiration

This dress represents the cycle of all seasons. Cool and warm coloured flowers represent winter and autumn with fresh flowers reminding us of summer and spring time. In a metaphoric way the dress represents the cycle of the seasonal changes while also representing our life’s dark and light moments. The name of this dress is “Frosty Flower,” with this oxymoron, Samanta wanted to embody the layered stories the dress represents. “Frosty” reminding us of the cold seasons and the darkest emotions moments in our life and the substantive fresh “flowers” symbolise the warmest seasons and life’s joyful moments.
