Eclatia

Apparel collection

The aim of the Eclatia Apparel Collection is to seamlessly integrate trend forecasting, conceptualization, and production under a singular theme, offering a cohesive and innovative interpretation of divine femininity. Drawing inspiration from past myths, folklores, and spiritual themes, the collection will embrace an anti-curated aesthetic, infusing expressive, subversive, and occasionally darker elements influenced by 1990s goth culture and historical medieval motifs. Through a meticulous understanding of trend forecasting, the aim is to develop flexible and problem-solving products and services that simplify life and offer multifaceted uses, catering to the dynamic needs of individuals in an unpredictable world.
