Suyamba Kumaresan

/sʊjɑːm.bɐ/ /kʊm.ə'reɪ.sæn/

Industry Project with Hardy Amies of Savile Row

June 2017

The choice of cloth was inspired by raw construction elements, and the integral hidden interior layers of a bespoke suit.

The silhouette has contrasting proportions, with the emphasis thrown in order to boldly divide the parts of the body and highlight the slightest part of a female figure: the waist.
