Since her graduate collection in 2019 to the upcoming Spring/Summer 2022 collection, 25-yearold fashion designer and sculptor Caro Chia has imbued her designs with poetic narratives that explore the dynamics of sculpture and fashion. Heavily influenced by the likes of Barbara Hepworth and Jean Arp, Chia’s designs resemble fluid, architectural cuts that capture a quiet sensuality in a multitude of beautiful expressions. From a corset top with curved lines akin to an oval wooden paint tray to a bodysuit with crescent shoulders and matching blue-dipped gloves, and a diaphanous dress that is brilliantly draped and twisted during lockdown; her aesthetic stands at the forefront of fashion as a quest to align abstract art with an uninhibited gesture of garments.
