Skool Studios;Second Skin
Elianyi Gomez (DR)



Skool Studios;Second Skin is about how identity gets shaped through the subcultures I’m part of and inspired by, like skateboarding, graffiti and tattoos. I’m interested in how these spaces create their own visual language, and how people use that to express themselves and find a sense of belonging. For me, a “second skin” isn’t just clothing, it’s everything that builds up over time — marks, wear, memories, and personal style. The hoodies are the main outcome of the project, I build them up through layering, distressing and reworking, so each one feels unique and personal. I think of it like offering a kind of bespoke service, where every piece is shaped around a person rather than following a set design.
