Step into a world where tailored menswear with crisp shirting, twills, and neutral tones meets bold pops of GORE-TEX, sashiko fabric, and chainstitching.
The Mind Maze collection playfully incorporates pencil and paper motifs into fabric prints and fabrications, adding a unique twist that symbolises the designer's journey of navigating through the complexities of learning differences. The collection also features sunglasses with pencil-shaped frames — a nod to the tools that challenged and empowered the designer.
Mind Maze is a powerful statement about breaking free from societal norms and living life on your own terms. The collection illustrates feelings of isolation within the public school system due to dyslexia and learning disabilities. This dynamic menswear collection is a testament to resilience and creativity.
Featuring collaborations with talented SCAD students in accessories, packaging, graphic design, UX, film, photography, and jewellery. The designer also worked with a toy design specialist to create miniature toy replicas of each outfit. The involvement of so many creatives is a tribute to the community that helped a creative find their path. Enter the Mind Maze and embrace the life of your dreams!
