Inspired by the alternate dimensions we exist alongside, Makeshift Reality is 2021’s creative answer to understanding the choices in front of us. The Age of Aquarius is here, so let us reawaken and descend back to earth. Escaping our 3D world and digital spheres, a passage is beginning to reopen, creating space for personal energy. Colourful, bold, and dauntless, the Alexandra’s take on this opening cosmos, appreciating the yesteryears whilst embracing the spirit of the now. Sharing both their personal experiences, as well as the tales behind the clothes, this piece is made up of fashion collectables and memorabilia. This creative exchange between innovators represents the story beneath us all and the connections that arise when reality is set in motion.
