MEMENTO MORI

Isabelle's Graduate Collection, "MEMENTO MORI" (translating to 'Remember, you must die'), explores commentary on the impermanence of the human condition through a perspective on love and loss.

Through the portrayal of six bespoke silhouettes, the audience is prompted to reflect on the ephemeral nature of life—like all living things, everything must meet its inevitable end.

The collection’s unique language of visual and material juxtaposition, silhouette, and the reimagining of matrimonial elements unfolds an emotional journey toward accepting life’s impermanence, revealing a poignant beauty born from the very emotion that defines our humanity: Love.
