Clara Aguayo - Uruguay

Clara Aguayo won the Young Innovators contest, which enabled her to found her brand. Her work is characterised by tailoring techniques combined with zero waste pattern cutting, often working with fabrics retrieved from the heyday of the Uruguayan textile industry. Clara’s installation at International Fashion Showcase will reflect on mental health and anxiety, creating an environment that is modified by the presence of an audience, and which asks us to consider how we affect each other through our actions.
