Collection 02.5: Warrior. 2023.

This collection was commissioned by Full Circle Dance Company with the prompt: dark, movement-minded dance garments to be worn for FCD’s annual winter showcase. Jasmin worked closely with choreographer, Hope Byers, to materialize the concept of dance piece entitled, “Veil Across the Stars.” The piece was inspired “The Dream Keepers,” a poem by Langston Hughes, which personifies the things that shadow over dreams.

The collection was designed, handmade, and fitted by Jasmin, and dancers successfully brought them to life in November 2023 at the Baltimore Theatre Project. In the process, the Warrior Skirt was born, which later became a staple in the next collection, CAPRICORN. The Warrior Skirt combines an asymmetrical leather panel, reminiscent of armor, and a feminine, ballet-inspired chiffon circle skirt.
