'A Shell For a Human'

POSTED BY FIZZY STAFF

In a triumphant return to the London fashion scene, T LABEL, the romantic wear brand, has unveiled its SS24 collection, 'A Shell for a Human.' Founder and Creative Director, Taylor-Bea Gordon, weaves a narrative that delves into the intricate relationship between our physical bodies and the spaces we inhabit, both tangible and digital.

The collection boldly explores the concept of a shell through innovative forms and materials. Beads intricately sculpted around the head and arms serve as a protective turtleneck, while the brand's cult gloves envelop hands in sheer organza. The statement skirt, proclaiming 'Fashion Week Gives Me Anxiety,' stands as a poignant expression of vulnerability and honesty.

Taylor-Bea Gordon, the visionary behind T LABEL, reflects on the collection's genesis, sharing a personal journey of grappling with anxiety and the fragility of our bodies. Beyond the fashion, the show serves as a platform to shed light on the challenges faced as a self-funded designer within an industry rife with financial pressures, particularly during events like fashion week.

The collection's diverse possibilities of 'outer layers' are showcased through a variety of dresses, tops, and bottoms, inspired by natural shapes and interior design. Vase holder bags adorned with blooming flowers symbolize inside-out growth, emphasizing the idea of cultivating our shells. The transcendentally organic color palette features brown, black, beige, green, pearl, and crystal clear hues, inviting a connection with the earth.

At the heart of T LABEL's ethos is a commitment to resourcefulness and sustainability. Each piece is made-to-order in a Worcester-based atelier using deadstock fabrics and upcycled textiles. The brand embraces eco-friendly practices, from conscious production to eco-postage in recycled packaging and offsetting carbon emissions from deliveries.

T LABEL's sustainable process prioritizes a fabric-first approach, utilizing deadstock, end-of-roll, or ex-designer fabrics. Organic cotton and pure silks, sourced in limited amounts from London and produced in Italy, showcase the brand's dedication to conscious fashion. Upcycling techniques incorporate pre-loved beads, zips, and buttons, further emphasizing the concept of a shared, mobile home for humanity.

In unveiling 'A Shell for a Human,' T LABEL not only presents a captivating collection but also champions a narrative of self-love, sustainability, and authenticity in the ever-evolving world of fashion.
