A symbol. A signal. A joke. A truth.
Faded Lifebelt brings the paradox of survival into full color. Two mirrored hands wrap around the torso, evoking the shape of a lifebelt – not pristine, not new, but worn, raw, and radiant. This is a design about what we cling to when the waves come. And who we become when we fully let go.
The hands don’t save you. They remind you that you already did that.
Printed in saturated hues of orange, violet, and green against a clean white, the image feels both playful and grounded. The placement hits low, hugging the waist. It dares to say: I know what it means to hold on. And I know what it costs.
It also gives a really nice illusion that your waist is small ;)
