NAGNATA Debuts r2e denim at AFC australian fashion week 2025.
Introducing the next chapter of Nagnata at AFW—rooted in where our pieces begin, and where they return.
Behind the scenes of the 'Return To Earth' AFW 2025 runway show, there was a quiet sense of significance. This show wasn’t just about debuting a new collection—it marked the beginning of a new chapter for Nagnata. One rooted in deeper responsibility, material innovation and creative storytelling.
Every detail backstage, from the compostable denim garments to the grounded rituals shared by our cast, reflected a commitment to designing beyond trend—to designing with the earth in mind.
From hair and makeup to footwear and accessories, every styling choice was a conscious extension of the R2E narrative; a sensory expression of the collection’s philosophy, woven through every layer of the show.
"A runway show offers a powerful, immersive moment—the energy, the music, the movement—but it often leaves little space to communicate the nuance behind a garment’s purpose or process." - laura may gibbs
“It’s not about preaching, but planting a seed. A quiet invitation to return to something more considered, more connected.” - LAURA MAY GIBBS
