Nils’ Redress Design Award collection, ‘Ex Voto’, imagines outfits from a fictional lost city that was destroyed and rebuilt under mysterious circumstances. His designs include a range of multifunctional garments, including a vest that can be worn in four different variations, and a collar that can be folded up into a mask. For this collection Nils upcycles unique found materials including sofa upholstery fabric and nylon from an old family tent, and addresses low-impact materials and processes by using water-based printing paint on his garments.
