lemáine🩸

TW - SA, Suicide the dress i designed after i was raped

every time i make a mistake i experience a level of distress equivalent to someone about to be shot

without being too graphic, my actual process was basically halted by the way trauma physically affected me (throwing up everyday, passing out, anxiety + agoraphobia), i’m so relived to be better now - i’ve designed a lot of pieces about this experience for a future collection

this couture week was for the fashion lovers i can’t even pick favourites

if i think about how much my r*pist impacted my career i get so angry and bitter i was doing so well as a small new designer and then i’ve had like a full year of mistakes and chaos and delays that i’m still paying price for it makes me so MAD AH

anyway

people asking if i'm doing a show or anything at all for LFW i have only just worked out Being Alive after what happened, to push any kind of presentation out right now would be ridiculous behaviour - recovery has to come first !! a lemáine moment will come just not right now
