Anne Sofie Madsen S/S’15: Come Undone

The latest collection from Sofie is about coming undone in time – falling apart and floating off into space. The current collection embodies the contrasts between something extremely private and personal but at the same time exposed and revealed, an intimate room within infinity. The silhouettes are inspired by the idea of the existence of cybernetic organisms that embrace both organic and technologic components – the invention and reinvention of nature.

A cat-lady in a broken time machine, this feeling is evoked by the use of a reinterpretation of traditional handy craft methods. Devore techniques, quilting ruffles and smacking made on tha 1950s domestic machine, all used to create a deteriorating feminine silhouette. Leather, linen, hand painted silk and mink fur comes undone in complex juxtapositions, combining lightness and strength with heavy ropes and ruffles. A patchwork of melting mechanical shapes, frayed edges with coats falling apart. Piece after piece you are lost in this mesmerising collection.
