FINAL LINE
Culminating project for my studies in Apparel Design & Development
Pulling inspiration from technology, cyberpunk film and literature, and Japanese animation, ROBOBRUJA offers elevated streetwear focused on material and color and expressing a balance between functionality and aesthetics.
I also wanted to use this opportunity to explore atypical fabrications and material combinations.
