Shirel Abergel is a recent graduate from The Nb Haifa School of Design in Israel holding a degree in Fashion Design. Their project deals with the reality of the transient population, the Homeless.
"I feel like my creation reflects something more than a fabric and a pattern, you can tell the garment have a story and extra value."
"I chose to focus on a wrap coat as a shield, hats and extra layers. Expressing their day-to-day reality in a combination of intense and strong colors representing their emotions."
"I believe that color has power in art, but a lot of people are afraid of it. This is something that I would like to enhance and make the audience look at it differently."
