A multidisciplinary collaboration of Ukrainian like-minded creators
DZHUS ethical transformer clothing brand and White Mandarin natural selfcare label have released mesmerising holiday cards.
The “Kinship” visual project celebrates a unique synthesis of various designer objects, united by eco-inspired, surrealistic aesthetics.
The art director of the collab, Irina Dzhus, has gathered multipurpose garments, interior decor, authentic ceramics, 3D-printed jewellery, cruelty- free shoes, and avant-garde pastry in one space – all designed by Ukrainian talents. The unusual beauty looks were created using natural skincare and haircare products.
The series of abstract compositions highlighting domestic scenes is implemented in white monochrome, whereas all the details speculate on corporeality and biomorphic shapes.
The project’s ideologists, DZHUS and White Mandarin, have consolidated their creative forces to honour a complex approach to formation of a harmonious and self-sufficient personality, and to glorify synergetic elements of conscious happiness.
cultures meet, new things come to life.
You’re a wonderful chef and fabulous host. If there was an impromptu dinner, what would we eat?
This week I’m having a few people over for dinner at home. It’s going to be a festive Indian evening, but with things like caviar served in the style of street food. Taking the simplest of street food and making it super luxurious, that’s the dichotomy, whether it be food or fashion. It’s how we put it all together that makes it interesting.
