COLLECTION STATEMENT:
Naturalixs envisions fashion that coexists with nature sustainably. As inspiration, the range collects from original imagery deriving from whats washed ashore.
This concept explores the captivating silhouettes and textures found within seashells and
anenome, translating them into innovative garments suitable for contemporary and creative fashion. Each piece embodies the balance between organic aesthetics and refined tailoring techniques.
Naturally occurring materials play a pivotal role in this range, focusing on sustainability and ethical practices. Utilizing a majority of organic textiles, responsibly sourced fabrics, and ecofriendly production methods, the garments support a blend of comfort, durability, and individual style. By seamlessly integrating natural materials with intricate design elements, Naturalixs advocates for a more conscious and environmentally aware fashion industry. The collection breaks traditional fashion boundaries, empowering individuals to embrace their sensuality while maintaining a professional demeanor. Naturalixs introduces tailored silhouettes infused with original prints, denim, leathers, wool and wool blends. This fusion creates a captivating juxtaposition of masculinity and feminity, allowing wearers to exude confidence and delicacy in any setting.
Receiving the $1,500 grant from the Australian Wool Education Trust (AWET) for the
collection underscores wool’s profound connection with water and the ocean. Wool, being a sustainable fiber, not only serves as a nod to this relationship but also exhibits its eco-friendly characteristics by being biodegradable both on land and in water.
