Roniqveja – Portfolio
The “Její každodennost” collection tells the personal story of Roniqveja – a girl who wakes up five minutes after the last alarm and finds herself still in yesterday’s chiffon dress. The paint accidentally spilled on her new coat hasn’t dried yet – just like her wet hair. In her bag, she carries her fluttering purple dress, over which she wears bold shoulders at work. It means a lot to her.
At three, she’s rushing to the dry cleaners. And in just half an hour, she has an important meeting. What she didn’t expect was to pick up a completely torn dress. But time is chasing her, and she has to work with what she’s got…
She finally slams the door of her apartment shut behind her and sinks into bed with satisfaction. But her rest won’t last long – she still has to pick an outfit for the evening premiere. She doesn’t just choose a pearl necklace, Roniqveja reaches for a pearl gown.
Her Everydayness is a visual screenplay of a single day – from the morning rush to the evening premiere. It tells the story of a woman who carries both strength and chaos within her. Who wears decisiveness just as naturally as spontaneity.
It is a collection about those moments when things aren’t perfect – but they’re real.
Style and Silhouette
The collection oscillates between femininity and masculinity. Both the materials and cuts are contrasting – just like the emotions of the main character. Sharp lines mix with movement, firmness with transparency, control with coincidence. Hard and heavy materials represent strength and resilience. Light, flowing fabrics symbolize liveliness and freedom.
Materials
Wool (in two weights): heavy for structure, light for layering
Denim and firm satin: provide support and framing
Chiffon, pleats, and tulle: bring lightness and a sense of flow
This combination creates a tension between structure and spontaneity – much like a day that starts disheveled and ends in a pearl gown.
Color Palette
Black (matte and glossy) – deep and elegant, the collection’s anchor
White – in details for playfulness and escape
Grey – a stabilizing element, bridges opposites
Purple – the only bold color: halfway between red and blue, just like the designs, they balance between femininity and masculinity
