ORIGAMI

Fabric folds like paper in motion - creased by hands, shaped by movement, resting where it lands. A sleeve pushed up, a collar turned down, the quiet geometry of a dress wrapping around the body, then slipping loose. A blazer, balanced at the edge of a shoulder, waiting to fall. Nothing is rigid, yet everything holds its place. A coat drapes like a page half-turned. A shirt, buttoned to the top, then undone. A cuff smoothed, then rolled, then smoothed again. The memory of each fold lingers, faint but present, like lines pressed into parchment. And then there’s the necklace - worn back to front, clasp resting at the hollow of the throat. A quiet detail, unnoticed at first, like an edge folded inward instead of out. It moves with the body, shifting with the breath, catching the light only when it wants to be seen. Fashion, like origami, is a study in touch - creased, pleated, held, released. A collar lifted by the wind. A dress falling into its own shape. A moment, wrapped in fabric.
