GESTURES

Bianca Saunders continues to challenge hypermasculinity stereotypes and explore black male identity within British culture, building on her journey that began with her Autumn-Winter 2018 collection, 'Gestures.' This collection draws inspiration from body language and mannerisms observed in research films and performance artist Paul Maheke's 'Unwritten Handbook,' aiming to convey the comfort and intimacy of one's clothing while also addressing notions of sex appeal. 'Gestures' combines masculine and feminine elements in familiar fabrics, reflecting a sense of intimacy in its designs. It offers a profound exploration of how personal space and clothing reveal the wearer's identity through movements.
