Women have constantly been shamed, blamed, and labelled for wearing revealing clothes. The stereotypes surrounding revealing clothes suppress unique individuals from expressing themselves through fashion. The Collection "Unzipped" is inspired by a Victorian fashion style which is an ideal of being modest and greatly influences the evolution of the Thai dress code. Zippers being fastened convey the state of being ‘suppressed’ while zippers unfastened convey the state of being able to ‘expressed’.

The project aims to empower the choice of self-expression by wearing revealing clothes under the pressure of conservative culture and social norms, circulating the revealing clothes stereotypes, and promotes women's empowerment.
