state of youth

State of Youth is a visual exploration of the in-between — moments that exist in the tension between stillness and movement, control and instinct. It captures the rawness of youth, not as a phase, but as a mindset: unpredictable and always in flux.

The styling plays with balance and disruption. Nothing feels too polished — every detail is meant to suggest spontaneity, a kind of calculated imperfection that speaks louder than words.

It’s about occupying space with intention, letting clothes carry the attitude. It’s about being seen — even in the quietest moment. No rules, just presence.
