The Flower Within is a knitwear collection that embraces visible mending as a means of exploring themes of care, self-acceptance, and the beauty of imperfection. The collection draws on the timeless appeal of flowers to celebrate life’s natural cycles of decay, repair, and rebirth. By approaching mending and upcycling as opportunities for creativity and beauty, The Flower Within rejects disposable fashion and reestablishes our relationship with clothing as a deeply personal one. Inspired by classic loungewear and lingerie silhouettes, the garments are an expression of the intimacy and vulnerability that come from embracing our humanity, flaws and all.
