Op Art Collection
Tehran, Iran
“I have always been inspired by op art and 1960s mod fashion,” says Maryam Varschochi, whose debut collection references themes that became prominent during that era — geometric shapes, black-and-white patterns, positive and negative space. The emerging designer dreams of building her own brand someday, where young people can team up for creative collaborations.
Materials: “I used a lot of neoprene fabric. I found it really interesting and modern. I also used a wire technique to create organic shapes based on the reaction of the wire inside the cloth.”
Palette: “Black and white, with pops of yellow to achieve a more graphic effect.”
