Problem To Solve
I created Mosaic Moda to address the lack of representation and appreciation for cultural and ethnic fashion in mainstream media. My goal was to create a platform that celebrates traditional garments and modern interpretations, while highlighting the voices of designers who honor their heritage through fashion.
Solution
Mosaic Moda is a visually rich and culturally respectful fashion magazine that bridges the gap between tradition and contemporary style. By showcasing global fashion stories, designer insights, and styling tips, the magazine celebrates diversity, inspires creativity, and encourages readers to view cultural heritage as an integral part of modern fashion.
In my visual solution, I incorporated illustrations to emphasize craftsmanship, and I art-directed photographs featuring garments with patterns and elements that represent various cultures.
