COLLECTION STATEMENT:
‘Cinch’ is a collection that embraces the romance, restraint, and quiet force of memory drawn from growing up in the Australian outback. Rooted in the resilience of the land and its people, it transforms elements of saddlery, stockman’s attire, and the unique Australian land into contemporary silhouettes that balance heritage and modernity.
The colour pallette consists of earth tones of saddle brown, dusty red, ochre and muted greens, and materials such as leather, wool, cotton and denim evoke durability and comfort. Through deconstruction and reconstruction, Cinch explores how memory, material, and identity intertwine, reflecting a landscape and spirit shaped by endurance, renewal, and the enduring bond between body and place.
