Ontologia

Graduate Collection

2022

Slideshow View

This collection is developed upon ideas of modernist art movements which centered on abstracting all natural forms as geometrical shapes. Geometry, in modern art, was considered a form of universal language which could transcend culture and time.  

Focusing on the use of abstraction through geometry, this collection wishes to challenge the viewer’s perspective on the relationship between the body, garment and space. By accentuating the flatness of surface and sharp lines, Ontologia aims to introduce novel possibilities to how people can perceive and interact with clothes.

Hybrid

Second Year Collection

2021

Milan Jeon

Slideshow View: For Desktop viewers

This collection is birthed from an amalgamation of traditional Korean clothing (Hanbok) silhouettes and also of the West, by focusing specifically on the Victorian Era. The garments in this collection represent the mixture of cultural influences while growing up as a first-generation South Korean immigrant in a Western Country (New Zealand).

Hybrid is an appreciation of both historical and contemporary fashion, adapted to the audience of the 21st century.
