Fino alla nona vita

Bunka Fashion Graduate University

fino alla nona vita (until the nineth lives) is a poetic, autobiographical collection archiving a queer love story through memory, longing, imagination, and hope. It follows a real encounter, where together, we are the “black cat and orange cat”, symbols of softness, freedom, and love across lifetimes. This collection exists at the intersection of textile, poetry, and intimacy. Each garment is a relic of feeling, a fossilized moment in knitwear, textile, and emotional form.
