DALI

A menswear collection that borrowed its imagination from Salvador Dalí — and needed a story as unexpected as its clothes.

Client
Jatin Malik Couture
ROLE
Collection storytelling & launch

01 — The brief

DALI by JMC was a menswear collection inspired by the work of Salvador Dalí, unveiled on social media on 12 August. The collection needed to arrive as an idea, not just a lookbook.

02 — The thinking

Surrealism gives you permission to be strange. The opportunity was to let the collection carry some of that dreamlike tension — familiar tailoring, placed in a world that feels slightly off-kilter.

“Familiar tailoring, placed in a world that feels slightly off-kilter.”

03 — The approach

The launch was built around striking, art-led imagery and a social-first unveiling, developed with a team led by designer Jatin Malik and stylist Eka Lakhani.

04 — My role

  • —Worked closely with the creative team on the collection's storytelling
  • —Supported the launch and its communication on social media

05 — The work

06 — The takeaway

Working alongside people at the top of their craft showed me how much of a launch is decided long before anything is posted — in the clarity of the idea.

Next project — 02
