Collection „After Colors“ Fall / Winter 2013/14 is dark and raw, apocalyptic, nihilistic. Collection talks about growing up. Mental, emotional, psychological, social growing up. Seeking answers to the question - what happens after colors, after childhood, after life, after the world? The whole concept is based on the deconstruction and recycling. The collection consists of clothing resulted from the deconstruction of form and use of recycling waste materials and materials in view of modern garments. With analysis of anti form and achromatic tone values created a collection dominated by dark tones, black with some bronze, maroon-purple, royal blue and bursts of golden. Materials used are heavy: leather, rubber, PVC, plastic with a lot of chains, rivets, buckles, metal details that dominate the collection. This collection had a premiere on Drap Art Festival `12 in Barcelona in October 2012.
