Entitled 'Aesthetic Compositions' this collection by designer Angeline Oei gains its visual inspiration from the world of architecture. Aiming to exude both a feminine and ethereal air, this avant-garde line of womenswear embraces sculptural shoulder accents and oversized silhouettes.
The designer's highly conceptual garments are meant to serve as a criticism for our image-obsessed society that is dominated by digital media. Boasting a slew of architectural accents, the 'Aesthetic Compositions' collection by Angeline Oei also features other eye-catching visual elements that include digitized photo prints and volume-infused shapes that give dimension to an individual's body.
The Singapore-born designer creates a collection reminiscent of 2D printed media imagery. Mimicking what she sees in a traditional magazine, Angeline Oei creates wearable garments that appear three-dimensional and complex in their construction.
