SAQUA by Julia Vadée

artPLAY fashion…let’s start playing.

“SAQUA” an artPLAY exclusive fashion story

Photographer Julia Vadée have created a mood where soft but raw, bold but vulnerable, masculine and feminine meet. Mixing pieces from independent label Saqua with vintage garments and highlighting sexy feminine energy in a contemporary way.

Saqua is a sustainable, independent label ran by a queer entrepreneur who also happens to be a sex worker. Saqua supports everyone who owns their desires and claims the right to express themselves and it creates intimates that are inclusive of all bodies and sexualities. Made with recycled nylon fabric, biodegradable trims and other ethical materials; the so-called Sustainable Slutwear: a sex positive, inclusive brand that creates alternatives to the default world where bodies are censored and oceans are filled with plastic. artPLAY is all about this vibe, let’s make a difference and stay free of prejudice and free of pollution.
