SCULPTOR UNDONE
Spring/Summer 2016
Fashion is sculpture. Body is sculpture. With SS2016 collection, Acephala celebrates the heritage of Polish sculptor Alina Szapocznikow, following her fascination with female body and organic forms. Miniature clay models of torsos and breasts, inspired by Szapocznikow’s work, have been photographed, composed into patterns and applied as prints that decorate statement pieces. The style of the collection can be described as soft tailoring, where bubbles, draperies and curves are inscribed into tailored forms borrowed from sculptor’s uniform. Textures become three-dimensional.
