The looks were paired with a mix of wide-leg and fitted trousers, many featuring pleats, while others incorporated shorts juxtaposed with formal jackets-a bold choice that created a balance between comfort and formality. A standout piece of the collection, a dark brown silky slip dress, added an element of minimalist elegance, proving that Wàngda’s vision extends beyond traditional gender boundaries.

Texture played a significant role in the collection, with shiny metallic fabrics, velvet, sequines, and leather adding layers of depth and intrigue. These elements created a rich tapestry of tactile experiences, allowing the garments to take on a life of their own. The overall styling favored monochromatic or tonal dressing, allowing the focus to remain on the silhouette and fabric rather than being distracted by bold patterns. Wàngda’s exploration of gender-neutral and androgynous elements further contributed to the collection’s sophisticated yet approachable aesthetic, emphasizing minimalist luxury with a modern, cutting-edge edge.

“Fashion is about pushing boundaries,” said Wàngda. “This collection is a reflection of that belief-each piece was crafted to challenge the norms and invite the wearer to embrace their individuality.”
