Vancouver Fashion Week FW 2024:
“For(e)word” Collection

From the combination of 'foreword' and 'forward', this collection embodies confronting uncertainty and daring to step forward towards personal growth. Monica draws inspiration from her journey, transforming depression into an asset rather than a setback, recognizing that there is beauty in sadness and perfection in flaws. 

Through meticulous design choices, such as color palettes, fabric selections, and garment silhouettes, this collection visually expresses sadness in each outfit, inviting viewers to contemplate the intertwining of creativity and melancholy.
