Rawan Maki


Words By Kate Farley

Amalgamating her background in environmental engineering with contemporary fashion design, Rawan Maki hones her craft in London and advocates sustainable style, creating each garment as asystem”, aesthetically and additionally in connection with zero-waste design ideologies.

Achieving zero-waste patterns, Maki conscientiously employs organic fabrications as well as ecological footwear, wherein her fall/winter 2017 debut she used Bhava Studio and Po-Zu footwear amid her spring/summer 2018 collezione, a sustainable label who creates leather extracted from pineapples in collaboration with Pinatex.

As an extension from last seasonsWaves of the Futureline, where the designs and textures were collectively revolutionary and nostalgic, Rawan Maki’s SS18 collection, entitledFLOURISH: FLOWERS IN OUTER SPACEencapsulates tumblingriversleeves, tailored albeit voluminous bows, vivid linens, and anenvelopedress that arrives modern and bespoke, which is reminiscent of Balenciaga’s envelope dress masterwork.

With inspiration from the influence of nature to overcome, Rawan describesFLOURISH: FLOWERS IN OUTER SPACEasflourishing is part of the human state, and many times we need to go through elongated periods of dynamic equilibriumwhich are periods where you feel like you are running in place, but in reality a lot is happening- to achieve a higher state. Or in other words, to flourish.Visually discovering inspiration from the workings of artists Azuma Makoto and Nguyen The Hung, the upcoming designer was aesthetically intrigued by their floral delineation seen amid aboriginal or abstract locales.
