I created this 3D animated short in 2022 as a personal project, using it as an opportunity to explore and test cloth simulation workflows in Marvelous Designer. The piece focuses on showcasing CGI fashion garments within a New Yorkinspired environment, reflecting the brands roots while building a grounded, urban visual context. I also incorporated a subtle VHS aesthetic to give the animation a more nostalgic and stylized edge.

I handled the project end-to-end, from 3D modeling and garment creation to animation and final output. The process was both technical and experimentalbalancing accurate cloth behavior, and overall scene composition while finding a visual language that felt cohesive and expressive.
