NEW WEST

This work focuses on material metamorphosis and sustainability within fashion accessories. The objective was to create a cohesive set (boots and a handbag) utilizing recycled denim and leather. The visual style draws from Western aesthetics, represented by the silhouette of the slanted heel and the application of silver stars and fringes. The technical craftsmanship emphasizes the combination of a textile upper with solid footwear construction. The project demonstrates the ability to transform common, worn-out material into a design product that bridges historical cowboy heritage with contemporary fashion trends.
