Miss. behaved

Palak Sethi

Fashion Institute of Technology FIT

Miss. Behaved interrogates hyperfemininity as a construct shaped by the male gaze, once used to render women submissive and objectified. Through bombastic silhouettes, ultra-femme textile manipulation, and protective maximalism, the collection redirects attention from the body to the boldness of the garment. Each choice becomes a declaration of identity and freedom, culminating in one question: Who decides what a woman should wear? She does, unapologetically.
