If we had to name a modern illness, we would choose appearance anxiety.
It silently seeps into everyday life—starting from a single eyelash, a scar, a pimple—causing us to constantly question our so-called “imperfections.”
For those of us in the fashion industry, this anxiety is often normalized and justified, yet it undeniably leads to mental and physical exhaustion and distortion.

“Perfectly Inorganic” challenges this collective obsession with perfection.
In the pursuit of ideal beauty—through plastic surgery, makeup, and modification—people chase a singular, standardized version of perfection.
What remains, in the end, is something inorganic: fragmented bodies and weary souls.

In the silhouettes, we use gowns and tailored suits to symbolize the concept of “perfection.”
These are then layered with unconventional materials like faux leather, gauze, and foam, disrupting the polished surface with irregularity.
The use of hand-shaped embellishments represents the suffocating societal standards imposed upon us—tangible and undeniable.
The presence of measuring tape integrated into the garments serves as a literal and ironic reflection of how we attempt to quantify perfection.

Through this collection, we hope every viewer understands:
It’s okay to be imperfect. The way you are is already enough.
Please, love yourself—love the imperfect us.
