My concept for this collection was to create a line that gave young, professional females more freedom in their choice of dress. This line of clothing opens up opportunity for women to easily move from their work to their leisure life, particularly in the After 5 environment.
The concept developed as I created a mood board filled with images of agony and entrapment. Dogs snarling as they are chained and restricted demonstrate a sense of mystery, as I translated in the collection through the form of hoods on garments.
