redress Design Award Collection

For his Redress Design Award collection, MD takes inspiration from the traditional garments of ‘Aboriginal Chakma’ a indigenous tribe who live in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. He up-cycles textile swatches, cut-and-sew waste and damaged textiles into geometric designs with which he hopes to inspire freedom and confidence in the wearer.
