Kayla Satzger explores the union of two people in love. Influenced by the physical joining of lovers, this collection focuses on the bodily impact

one has on another.

As her research encompasses romance, physical interaction, and historical culture, Kayla Satzger explores the distinctive notion of distortion

and manipulation revolving around the concept of being “in love.” With Victorian approaches and a unique relationship between garments, the

collection aspires to be recognized for its emotional perspective, sensual tone, romantic artisanship, and draping techniques. 

In many shades of black, this collection unveils the sensual binding of eternal love, and a life centered around devotion.

Kayla Satzger’s collection contrasts contemporary and Victorian, desire and mystery, extreme lightness and volatile heaviness.

In terms of material, this collection is a dark twist on 19th century silhouettes and fabrication. With contrast of heavy and delicate fabrics, the

collection is presented in wool, dress netting, and a variety of silks. Each piece exudes a sense of union through techniques of tension,

restriction, distortion, and draping.

The marriage of passion and elegance is presented in voluminous floor length skirts, tightly bound ruched bodices, heavy knit crops, draped

skirts, and extra-long coats.
