The Freedom of Movement: Nash’s philosophy revolves around garments as liberators. The collection embodies this ethos through transformative designs that empower wearers to shed restrictive silhouettes.

Transformative Design Details: From a mesh-printed hoodie that morphs into a basketball jersey to a dual-color oversized shirt that changes shape with a simple tie, Metamorphosis showcases unparalleled adaptability.
