ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Founded by Montreal artist Mari-Ève, her aesthetic has quickly caught the eye of hip-hop legends RUN DMC, ASAP Ferg, Director X, Grammy nominated duo Sofi Tukker among many other local and international artists seen wearing her designs.

BELBIN

BELBIN is inspired by British researcher Raymond Meredith Belbin’s test; a behavioral assessment tool designed to evaluate individuals' strengths and weaknesses in a group setting. Belbin identified nine distinct team roles, each characterizing different behavioral tendencies and contributions to group effectiveness. These roles include the Plant, Resource Investigator, Coordinator, Shaper, Monitor Evaluator, Teamworker, Implementer, Completer Finisher, and Specialist. Translating this concept into a fashion collection involves designing ten unique looks, each meticulously crafted to embody the essence of one of these team roles. Each ensemble is not merely a reflection of style but a visual representation of the strengths and attributes associated with that specific role. As the collection progresses, each look showcases a different facet of teamwork and individual contribution. However, it's the final ensemble that holds special significance. This ultimate look symbolizes the culmination of all team roles working in harmony, embodying the collective success achieved through the combined efforts and contributions of every team member. Throughout the collection, the essence of BELBIN is not only celebrated but also visually conveyed, highlighting the importance of recognizing and harnessing the diverse strengths within a group setting to achieve shared goals and success.


The focal point of this collection is 3-DIMENSIONAL's hallmark piece: The 3D Jacket. Each garment in this collection serves as a canvas for showcasing large, captivating 3D sculptures affixed to the back. These sculptures, meticulously crafted from acrylic utilizing state-of-the-art technology, exude a fusion of personality traits and architectural elements. The result is a mesmerizing ensemble that pushes the boundaries of fashion and artistry. Intricacy and sophistication define this collection, marking it as the epitome of 3-DIMENSIONAL's creative prowess. The jackets themselves serve as a platform for these sculptural masterpieces, with some designs boasting front panels adorned with thousands of smaller 3D pieces. This intricate detailing adds depth, dimension, and texture to the fabric, creating a truly immersive visual experience for the wearer and onlookers alike. Variety is key within this collection, with an array of jacket styles on display. From cropped silhouettes exuding contemporary flair to oversized designs embracing a bold statement, and even classic trench coat styles exuding timeless elegance, there's a piece tailored to every taste and occasion. To complement the avant-garde aesthetic of the jackets, models will be accessorized with 3D-printed hats reminiscent of rugby hats. These hats not only tie the entire look together but also serve as yet another testament to 3-DIMENSIONAL's commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional fashion.
