Pravjot Sambhi has based her project on imperfections. In society imperfections and flaws are heavily highlighted and are seen as something negative. The media portrays ideals telling us who, what and how we should be. She wanted to explore imperfections in our daily lives focusing on textures, colours and silhouettes and turn this negative view embracing it into something positive.
During the research stage of the concept, she had looked at model Winne Harlow, who has Vitiligo which is a skin pigmentation caused by lack of melanin pigment in the skin. The designer was enticed by Winnie Harlow’s beauty and how she embraced herself in society.
The collection involves oversized and exaggerated silhouettes as the main focus point, highlighting the big oversized shapes of the garment as they were a metaphor of imperfections. The shapes on the arms (imperfections) were all linked back to the main body of the garment using poppers to represent the imperfections, which make us who we are and we should embrace them.
