Speak Up by Nina Parulava

Young emerging Georgian Designer Nina Parulava created her collection for the BeNEXT contest. The concept of the collection was built around Mental Health issues and Nina used the power of fashion to convey important messages. The bags from Nina's collection were crafted in Carpeteria's Studio, where she herself brought her vision to life.

​

The bags in Nina's collection carry messages that are relevant to mental health issues, such as "Xanny," and are designed with fluffy textured materials that provide a stark contrast to the hard-hitting messages they convey. She wanted to create a visual representation of the weight that mental health issues can carry, while also providing a sense of comfort and warmth through the soft, fluffy materials of the bags.

​

These bags are not just stylish and eye-catching but also serve as a reminder that we should not shy away from conversations about mental health issues.
