Summary/Abstract: The Friday 13 collection investigates the creative and ethical possibilities of sustainable fashion through the integration of natural and recycled materials, alongside traditional textile techniques reinterpreted in a contemporary manner. The project explores the expressive potential of tufting art, crocheted structures and the reuse of woven carpets, shaping a visual language that addresses consumerism and the environmental impact of the fashion industry. Through sculptural volumes, tactile textures and multicoloured compositions, the collection proposes an experimental aesthetic oriented toward ecological responsibility and material innovation. Friday 13 thus becomes an artistic endeavour that revalues existing resources and demonstrates how sustainability can function as a catalyst for creativity within contemporary fashion design.
