🌹 Love in Pieces
by Autumn Foxx
Love never breaks all at once. It unravels in fragments — a rose wilting too quickly, candy wrappers left behind, a text at midnight that says too much and not enough. These pieces, small and almost unremarkable on their own, became the foundation for this collection.
When I began sketching The Breakup Edition, I wasn’t interested in telling a clean story. Heartbreak is never clean. It’s messy, jagged, contradictory — sweet in one moment, brutal the next. That’s why the clothes carry contrasts: soft curves clashing with sharp edges, delicate fabrics cut into power shapes. Every look is a piece of something that used to be whole.
🌹 Roses
We begin with a single, whole rose — the symbol of love in its purest form. But love doesn’t stay whole. It unravels, petal by petal. On the blazer, the roses scatter across the fabric, already falling apart. By the time we reach the XOXO dress, only fragments remain: a purse carried with Miss Heartbreaker, marked by her kisses, with a few petals scattered alongside the bold XOXO. What began as a declaration of love ends as evidence — roses in pieces, kisses fading, words turned final. Lets explore the key players of the story “Most Loved”.
Loverboy anchors Love in Pieces with its sharp tailoring and bold red accents—a symbol of love’s intensity before it unravels. Confident, commanding, and undeniably stylish, he represents the passion and pride at the heart of the story, setting the tone for everything that follows.

📱 Text Messages
Nothing unravels a love story faster than a screen lighting up at the wrong time. The text motifs and appliqués in the collection echo that betrayal — digital fingerprints that can’t be erased.

🍬 Conversation Hearts

💋 Lip Prints
They’re intimate, playful, but also accusatory. A kiss on fabric is both evidence and empowerment, proof of a love that was shared — and sometimes misplaced.
