- Materials:
- Tubes made of recycled fabric, following a progressive color pattern.

- Collar crafted from recycled black plastic electrical wire protective tubing, adorned with metal springs.
Unique Features:
- Functional and Artistic Elements:
- Collar: Made of tiny tubular springs, setting the stage for the coat's transformative journey.
- Tubes: Progressively larger tubes create the body of the coat, becoming functional sleeves at arm level and tubular PVC piping pockets at waist level, hanging by utility chain links.
- Hem: The tubes enlarge to form a singular tube that serves as the hem opening of the jacket.
- Closures: The jacket features a series of closures that follow a metamorphosis pattern, starting with a hook chain at the neckline, transitioning to hook and eye, buttons, shank buttons, and toggles.
