MACHINA

Category: Apparel

Competitions: International

MACHINA is a collection that transports viewers into a futuristic world shaped by motorsports and advanced automotive engineering. It tells the story of athletes pushing their bodies toward peak performance, where the pursuit of perfection often leads to life altering injuries. This drive for perfection creates a need for evolution between human and machine, merging both anatomies to form the ideal driver. The garment reflect this fusion of human and machine, through it's silhouettes inspired by both automobile and human anatomy, constructed in materials such as leather and nylon with burgundy striped lining, balancing machine like roughness with the delicacy of the human body.
