Second Skin
Short Description
Second Skin is a speculative fashion series that imagines a future where garments are not designed, but discovered. Inspired by iridescent shells, coral formations, and terrestrial flowers, the pieces exist as wearable ecosystems. They blur the boundary between body, nature, and material, proposing fashion as an extension of a surreal world rather than a product of it.
Process
My process begins with a custom trained ChatGPT model built around my own visual language, style rules, variables, and keyword systems. This model helps me define the world, mood, and material logic before any image is generated.
I then work primarily with Midjourney, which for me is the most powerful tool for constructing surreal worlds that feel physically believable. I use it to translate conceptual narratives into highly detailed visual environments where texture, light, and form behave as if they exist in reality. The goal is not fantasy for fantasy’s sake, but surrealism that feels tangible.
