Fine Line
No matter who the wearer is or how they identify they will feel cool, unique, and will attract attention from those around them.
FINE LINE
Fine Line is a collection inspired by the intersection of what is typically defined as “masculinity” and “femininity.” Playing off of London street style each ensemble has elements of menswear and womenswear creating an androgynous, yet glamorous look. Inspired by Harry Styles’ album of the same name, the original inspiration for “Fine Line” came from this quote by the singer; “What’s feminine, and what’s masculine...it’s like there are no lines anymore.” Fine Line was made for men, women, and individuals beyond the binary. No matter who the wearer is or how they identify they will feel cool, unique, and will attract attention from those around them. Fine Line’s fabrics focus on playing with texture and structure with a number of the fabrics being sourced from previously discarded fabric remnants. The final ensemble “Watermelon Sugar” is a completely zero waste garment meaning there was no waste created during the construction.
For Faible, fashion has always been about representation. Growing up she never saw anyone with her body type in the industry and as she learned more about fashion she saw how little representation there was for people of different body types, sizes, ethnicities, cultures, and identities. Throughout her fashion journey, she’s always strived to help people feel seen and represented. That’s why it is was important for her to make sure her collection was as inclusive as possible.
Fine Line was conceived in 2019, preparations to display the collection at the 2020 St. Catherine University Katwalk were halted by the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Faible was finally able to have the collection photographed in the summer of 2021.
