Sketch to Final
Black panel study.
A controlled silhouette with glossy black structure, suspended panel work, and a single color accent held like a fragment of stained glass.
Collections / Gilasi
Down memory lane.
A chronological edit of KOJ Designs’ runway and editorial chapters, anchored by Gilasi: the collection inspired by broken stained glass, reconstruction, and beauty in the pieces.
Gilasi
Glass, but not simply glass.
In Yoruba, Gilasi means glass. The collection begins with the image of broken stained glass: sharp edges, uneven fragments, and pieces that appear impossible to put back together.
KOJ Designs turns that fracture into construction. Outlines, seams, ribbons, transparency, and color-blocked fragments become evidence of rebuilding rather than marks to hide.
Some things break. Some things shatter. And some things become beautiful because they did.
Fashion Renders
Concepts brought into the body.
Digital fashion renders extend the Gilasi language into an editorial space where sketch, garment, light, and movement sit together. Matching concept drawings and finished renders are paired as a memory of the idea becoming a look.
Sketch to Final
From line to presence.
The concept drawing fades into a rendered garment: orange volume, openwork sleeve architecture, body line, and sculptural motion refined into a complete look.
Sketch to Final
Stained glass geometry.
Angular color panels become a wearable reconstruction of glass: fractured, polished, and intentionally composed around the body.
Look 04
Blue cutout line.
A sharp evening silhouette turns negative space into structure, with wrapped blue panels tracing the body like a drawn line made wearable.
Look 05
Plum volume study.
Oversized sleeves, controlled transparency, and tangled color lines turn the sketch-room gesture into an editorial silhouette with stage presence.
Look 06
Copper trouser form.
Warm copper tailoring stretches into a clean vertical line, finished with sheer hem detail and restrained hardware at the shoulder.
Look 07
Sage sash dress.
Soft green drape, side streamers, ring hardware, and a black fringe detail move the drawing into a quieter but still sculptural final look.
Finale
The looks in motion.
The render chapter closes as a runway vision: four silhouettes together, carrying color, surface, and memory forward as one collection language.
