“Being resourceful means rethinking traditional design processes, finding value in overlooked or discarded materials, and ensuring that every creation serves a purpose beyond fleeting trends.”

Redress Design Award Collection

Carla’s Redress Design Award collection, ‘Glitch Theory’, explores duality and randomness through varied line forms. The collection is entirely handwoven with factory surplus cords and yarns, using only the necessary materials to ensure zero waste. Carla reinterprets the recurring design element of lines from her previous collections, uncovering structure amidst chaos and embracing the uncertainties inherent in every creative choice. Her looks are made free-style without rigid patterns or structured looms, allowing creativity to flow organically.
