This Kiev-based Designer's Bag Collection Inspired By Human Anatomy Is Everything
Konstantin Kofta

Kiev-based fashion designer Konstantin Kofta’s label does not draw from world fashion trends, but chooses instead to amalgamate seemingly contradictory elements and manifest their ethos with garments and wearable accessories that border on being surreal, while still being highly tactile. Bringing to mind bones, hands, feet and skin, Kofta features garments reflecting the human anatomy in interesting, original and sometimes unsettling ways, a common thread that can be found across human-sourced collections of couture items, including ‘Hug’, ‘Born’ and ‘Roots’. Here’s what the designer has to say about the ethos behind the collections, before you immerse yourself in his inimitable style of dabbling in anatomic fashion:

”Inspired by the existence of natural phenomena and natural transitions, all garments were carefully crafted in the hidden Ukrainian design studio, enveloped by the pure serenity of time. Henceforth, a clear reference is suggested to the erection of the human spine, which evolved as a natural reaction to the raging elements, to strengthen us and develop us into independent, spiritual and conscious beings. It is this transition of materials and anatomy, which inspired this collection, presented by KOFTA for SS13.”
