Bound
Bound is a womenswear collection that examines the behavior of the body when wrapped, constrained, or covered. Through experimental silhouettes and varied textiles, the collection investigates how restriction alters movement, posture, and presence. Garments intentionally explore physical limitation as a design choice, using constraint not as a functional necessity but as a deliberate aesthetic and conceptual device.At a broader level, Bound confronts the ways women are continuously restrained within society, both physically and figuratively. By translating systems of control into form, construction, and material tension, the collection presents bold, confrontational designs that question autonomy, visibility, and agency, reframing restriction as both commentary and expression.
