Diana Avetisian

Another Role by Diana Avetisian is a collection that explores femininity as something constructed, performed, and constantly adjusted. Inspired by David Lynch’s Lost Highway, vintage cars, and mechanic uniforms, the collection follows an actress lost between performance and reality: a woman repairing herself as much as the machines around her. Structured, exaggerated silhouettes reference the boxy forms of vintage automobiles, while waxed fabrics, patent leather, and coated finishes evoke oil, metal, and glossy car surfaces. Utilitarian workwear elements are contrasted with refined tailoring, culminating in a showpiece coat adorned with Preciosa crystals over a crashed car print. A cool palette of greys, yellows, and muted beiges ties the collection together. Ultimately, Another Role is an invitation to find freedom in never quite fitting the role you were given.
