Her ethos of environmental sustainability has Chantalle constantly on the lookout to give second chances to fabrics, colors, and people.
SHE DECIDED TO BE THE CHANGE
For the pieces that are upcycled Chantalle was fascinated to play with remains and leftover fabrics and transform the pants and blouse into these unique and innovative pieces. The upcycled garments were made to emphasize that sustainable consumerism is ethical and can also be beautiful. She wanted to mix textures such as denim, lace, and fabric patterns with flora, fauna, and vibrant colors to make these garments beautiful and joyous. The skirt and top were made with cleverly reused and recycled fabrics, which simultaneously exuded elegance and ethical behavior. The separate skirt is exceptionally flexible since it can be worn in multiple ways that consistently highlight the pink-cut out peeking out on the bottom and the split side, which can be opened or closed depending on the mood of the occasion.
For the Men’s pieces Chantalle designed her men’s robe to be used for multiple occasions, both formal and informal, while still maintaining a fashionable outlook. Her robe’s luxurious fabric sparkles with multi-colored stripes expressing elegance yet light enough to have a more playful attitude. In this case, it was paired with casual white trousers, which only helped to emphasize the robe’s glittering shades of pink, green and blue. Her other men’s outfit was created to show how her designs can support a man’s active lifestyle by creating separates that highlight the male physique and athleticism. The top was ingeniously made with a cutout and safety pins linking the shirt. The fabric flows beautifully with movement, and its watery blue and green material is matched with loose black trousers that provide a refined and relaxed look.
