Half denim, half disco. Both halves mine. A dress with a sculpted one-shoulder denim bodice over a silver metallic pleated skirt punched with cut-outs, navy underneath. Black chunky chelsea boots, lug sole. Chunky boots, so the skirt doesn't get ideas. Concrete courtyard, hard sun, no bag.

One dress, two halves: a sculpted one-shoulder denim bodice over a silver metallic pleated skirt punched with cut-outs, worn with chunky boots.

The bodice is mid-wash denim folded into a single oversized sleeve that stands off the shoulder, with a fitted waist that drops in a long diagonal seam from one hip to the opposite side. Below it the skirt is a silver metallic taffeta in box pleats, cut asymmetric at the hem, longer on one side, and punched with irregular oval cut-outs backed in navy so the openings read as shadow rather than as damage.

Spring to early autumn, for anything described as an opening. Black chunky chelsea boots with a lug sole keep it from tipping into evening; no tights, no bag, small hoops. Shot in a concrete courtyard because the fabric needed something harder than itself.

I do not do soft launches. This is denim.
