EUGENIO

A palimpsest is a manuscript where earlier text has been scraped away to make room for new writing—yet traces of the original remain visible beneath. This collection applies that principle to discarded velvets and architectural fabrics, creating dark, feminine silhouettes that carry their past lives forward. Gothic romance meets Parisian elegance through layered construction where every fabric tells multiple stories. Structured blazers deconstruct into flowing forms. Heavy velvets dialogue with delicate underlayers. Each garment is both erasure and inscription—honouring material memory while writing something radically new.
