Filipino designer Kelvin Morales unveils a collection that's all about identity, nostalgia, and existence
Life is a constant search for who we are. We are always looking for answers about our purpose, our place in the world, and, more importantly, what truly gives our lives meaning. As we go through different chapters—or eras for today's generation—what we unearth isn't just our authentic selves but also the beauty found in knowing and discovery.
That is the inspiration behind Kelvin Morales' latest menswear collection. For the Filipino designer, this process of becoming mirrors a pirate's life on a boat adrift in the middle of the ocean—uncertain, yet always moving forward in search of that elusive treasure. But in this case, treasure hunt means finding a version of ourselves we can be proud of.
