mourning costume


Drawing inspiration from the venerable Catholic tradition of mourning attire, which prescribes wearing black for an extended period following the loss of a loved one, this collection delves into the sartorial manifestation of designer Sophia Grinston's contemplation on her wardrobe post her grandmother's passing. Serving as a poignant tribute to her beloved grandmother, the collection not only pays homage to her memory but also serves as a means for Grinston to navigate the profound emotions associated with the loss of her last surviving grandparent. Through a delicate interplay of design and emotion, this collection stands as a heartfelt expression of remembrance and a cathartic journey through grief and memory.
