Navy Suit

Stella Maris College Manly

Saskia Chin


"Tailored three-piece suit with neutral piping, lining, buttons and tie, enhanced with embroidery. Inspired by power dressing, gender equality, 1940’s suits, and Coco Chanel."

Images of Work

"Manufacturing piping contributed to the success of my design as I used the same fabric as for the lining and tie unifying the suit design. The manufacture of piping allowed me to expand my skills and successively adding complexity to the overall design."

"The feminist quotes embroidered on the lining and pockets of the jacket, as well as on the waist band of the pants, contributes to the success of my design as each quote amplifies the inspiration of gender equality, in turn emphasising the message of female power intended for the suit. "
