MADE BY ELZA ĀBELE

The collection “Unclothed” was successfully presented in the “Bourzma Boutique 2023”  fashion show. The theme of this show was upcycle, recycle and anti-fast fashion, that’s why the main idea behind the collection is that the most sustainable fashion choice you could make is just not buy that many clothes. And who you are as a person is more important than what you are wearing.

The collection is made from deconstructed second-hand clothing, integrating translucent fabrics to emphasize what is visible underneath – the people wearing them.
