Final project presentation for Intro to Fashion Sketching. We were Briefed to create a fashion collection inspired by our time abroad in France. I drew inspiration from the mysteries and healing properties of the ocean.

The ocean, with its vast, uncharted depths and rhythmic flow, has long been a source of mystery and inspiration for those who seek solace and discovery in new places. Its infinite horizon invites us to embrace the unknown, while its healing properties—whether through the soothing sound of waves or the salty breeze on the skin—offer a sense of calm and renewal. Traveling to coastal destinations allows one to immerse in this primal connection, where the ocean’s timeless presence mirrors the journey of self-exploration. Each wave that crashes against the shore seems to wash away the burdens of the past, and each new place brings with it a deeper understanding of oneself, much like the ocean’s depths remain both elusive and endlessly fascinating. In this way, the mysteries of the sea and the act of travel combine to create a profound healing experience, reminding us that sometimes the most meaningful discoveries are those that lie just beneath the surface.
