Emotional Scars

Category: Apparel

Emotional scars was my first collection ,created for my final year project at ESMOD KUALA LUMPUR. It was the starting point of my journey as a designer, where i first learn to turn emotion into design. It began as a personal exploration, a way for me to express the emotional wounds we carry and the ones that don’t always show but shape who we are. I was inspired by the human body, its anatomy, fragility, and resilience. One of the key looks was made entirely from real leather. Working with real leather allowed me to express both strength and vulnerability. The material itself carried weight and texture, chosen for its rawness and strength. The tough exterior reflected emotional armor, while every seam and detail mimicked the marks left behind by experience. Showing the body’s ability to heal and how scars form. Not just as a reminder of pain, but as proof of survival. This collection become more than just a design project, it was a statement of transformation, turning vulnerability into strength, and experience into something that could be worn with pride
