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.”
