The "Eating my Desire" collection tells new stories of female desire, bodies read as female and the representation of bodies. These stories can be retold in clothing, which is so directly physical. An intensive examination of feminist positions in art and literature, personal experiences and pop-cultural moments characterised the research for this work. These are quoted in various ways – whether in graphic text or more abstract associations. Classic dress forms are combined with legible symbols such as bodily fluids, status symbols and a wink. The collection aims to trigger specific moments and feelings and thus open up the possibility of rewriting female bodies in fashion.

The shoes that are part of the collection were developed and realised by Vaia Tatopoulou as a continuation of her collaboration with Kaja Busch.
