Clover Branch Pattern Hawaiian Beach Shirt . When asked about the inspiration behind her collection, Stephanie shared, “My final collection, ‘Future Terrains’ is a testament to the masculine urge to survive. Set in a bleak, dystopian environment, the blend of clothing with accessories prioritises utilitarian functionality and aesthetic. The concept plays with the narrative of male overcompensation, which I’ve represented through an unnecessary number of fully functional bags and modular elements between the garments.”Kei Kagami, one of the judges, commented, “Stephanie’s work truly embodies the spirit of the YKK Accessories Award. Her approach to accessories is very interesting and unique. As a fashion student, she’s imagined accessory work that only a fashion designer could conceive, combining knowledge of both clothes and bags in a way that suggests a new direction for accessory design.”Phillip Robert Patterson, another judge and founder of P.R.Patterson, added, “Stephanie’s collection stood out for its overall visual impact and her confident presentation. Her designs feature changeable silhouettes that work for different markets and personalities, showcasing innovation and creative expression.”

She explained, “The two looks have a combined 246 interchangeable options. All of the silhouettes derive from deconstructed backpacks and military bags as a physical representation of hyper-functionality. The curved panels in the jackets derived from reconstructing backpack strap outlines and building them into jacket blocks.”As the YKK Accessories Award recipient, Stephanie’s collection will be featured at the YKK London Showroom this September.The judges also highly commended runner-up Lily Baker for her innovative bag collection with an original concept.The YKK Accessories Award reinforces YKK’s ongoing commitment to fostering new design talent and promoting sustainable innovation in the accessories sector.
