UTOPIA SS 2021

  • Barbara Bartkova

As human beings, we are influenced by everyday things which we observe during the day, different types of architecture or by everyday life around us. Utopia is inspired by the architecture of Russian constructivism and era of the Soviet Union, focusing on the society and the construction of it as well as social norms in that time. As constructivist artists were focused on construction, the collection is built with different shapes of silhouettes representing the variety of buildings and their specific shape and function. The purpose of constructivist architecture was to be functional, so this aspect was taken into consideration and all designs are wearable. As the colour was a significant aspect of constructivist architecture, the collection is printed with a variety of different prints and its complemented with bold colours. Constructivism desires to express the experience of modern life, hence Utopia is approaching new innovative shapes and bringing them into life with the feeling of modernity and sophistication.
