Echoes of Earth is a concept-led collection inspired by elements of nature that are seen, lost and unappreciated in our manufactured world. It looks to encapsulate the beauty of natural systems and their parallels in fashion design, offering a renewed perspective on how deeply nature is embedded in human creation.

Nature exists not only in landscapes but within architecture, technological systems, and design. Influenced by biomimicry, the garments respond to nature’s inherent logic, solving design problems through structures, forms and processes drawn from the natural world. At the same time, biophilic design grounds this collection with our biological need to connect with nature emotionally and physically.

Echoes of Earth looks to present this concept with a heavy focus on textiles, process and practice. By incorporating metal hardware, natural fabrics, print, and using technologies to manipulate natural materials such as laser-etched patterns, CNC machinery and leather moulding to explore the tension and coexistence between the organic and industrial. The leather, hidden yet seeping out from beneath the surface, symbolises the persistence of nature, always present, even within artificial systems.Framed by systems thinking, this work embraces fashion as an interconnected process, one that reflects nature’s intelligence and potential for balance.

It invites a future where fashion honours the forms and systems that sustain us.
