AVANT GARDE FASHION FW 23-24 – Morfium is an avant garde and conceptual haute couture brand. The name of the brand is inspired by the Greek name Morfeus which is a deity of dreams. Morpheus was among the ancient Greeks and among the Latins the god of sleep and dreams. In this important capacity, Morpheus, son of Hypnos and Nyx (sleep and night), warned kings of great events to come through prophetic dreams. The name of Morfium takes on its full meaning thanks to the conceptualization and creation of second-skin fashion, both carnal and warlike, reminiscent of the strong and powerful woman that Jelena Malesevic wants to embody in her creations.
