Luxury fashion brand SELENEE will present its innovative 'Garden of Forking Path' collection at LA Fashion Week, transforming traditional runway presentations into an immersive artistic experience that challenges conventional fashion boundaries.
Inspired by Jorge Luis Borges' renowned short story, the collection explores complex themes of time, space, and destiny through meticulously crafted clothing. Featuring a sophisticated gray and black color palette, the designs blend vintage and modern sensibilities with unique silhouettes that represent multiple potential life paths.
Artistic Director Motong Yang conceptualized the collection as a metaphorical journey through personal choices and unrealized potential. Pieces range from corseted coats and exaggerated shoulder designs to innovative three-dimensional tailoring, with prices spanning $480 to $5,800.
The collection's distinctive elements include split-design cuffs mimicking labyrinth branches and layered skirts representing intersecting spaces. By integrating installation and performance art, SELENEE transforms the runway show into an interactive narrative about individual dreams and transformative possibilities.
Beyond aesthetic innovation, the brand emphasizes sustainable practices and cross-disciplinary creativity. Yang's vision seeks to inspire individuals to reclaim abandoned aspirations and embrace personal reinvention through artistic expression.
