‘Masqued’ is a personal narrative of the designer behind its collection that evokes metamorphosis, armor, dauntless beauty, and thick skin. These are translated through leather molding, metal fabrication and draping. The fantasy of making hard look soft and fluid is a reflection of the designer behind the “Masq”.
