SEQUOR
LATIN FOR "TO FOLLOW" OR "TO PURSUE," THIS COLLECTION EXPLORES THE TENSION BETWEEN BREAKING AWAY FROM AN IDEALIZED FACADE AND CONFRONTING THE LINGERING INFLUENCE OF THE PAST. IT REFLECTS HOW TRACES OF WHAT CAME
BEFORE INEVITABLY SHAPE US, EVEN AS WE TRY TO MOVE FORWARD, ALL WITH NEO-PREPPY STYLE AS THE GIVEN THEME.
IT ISN’T ABOUT REJECTING THE PAST FOR THE SAKE OF REBELLION, BUT ABOUT RIPENING AWAY FROM THOSE BELIEFS , NO LONGER BOUND BY THE FALSEHOODS THAT ONCE DEFINED THEM.
IN PURSUIT OF AN IDEALIZED VERSION OF SUCCESS, AN IMAGE IS CREATED APPEARING IDYLLIC- PICTURE-PERFECT, AND ENVIABLE. BENEATH THAT POLISHED SURFACE LIES REALITY, WITH DISHONESTY, VICES AND HIDDEN STRUGGLES,
WITH TIME, QUESTIONS BEGIN TO SURFACE. WHY AND FOR WHOM. AND ONCE THE TRUTH IS SEEN, CLARITY EMERGES, AND THEY REALISE IT HAS SHAPED WHO WE ARE. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO MOVE FORWARD WHEN THE PAST IS INESCAPABLE?
EVEN WHEN ONE DESIRES TO BREAK FROM THE FAMILIAR, THE PAST REMAINS. OUR UPBRINGING AND OUR PRIVILEGES, STAY WITH US, INFLUENCING WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE BECOME—EVEN AFTER WE ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR FLAWS.
IT IS NOT A REALISATION; IT’S A CONSTANT BALANCING ACT OF WHAT COMES AFTER THE REALISATION
