Song For The Mute

Founded in Sydney in 2010 by Lyna Ty and Melvin Tanaya, Song for the Mute approaches fashion as an evolving narrative, with each collection conceived as a new chapter. Creative Director Lyna Ty draws on personal memories, places and cultural experiences, translating them into garments shaped by distinctive fabrics, layered textures and experimental techniques. Tailoring, outerwear, knitwear and sportswear are reworked through unexpected proportions, lived-in surfaces and deliberately imperfect details, allowing material and process to take precedence over decoration. Craftsmanship and textile experimentation remain central, giving each collection a tactile and deeply individual character. Song for the Mute continues to develop a distinctly Australian perspective through storytelling, cultural memory and an international approach to contemporary design.
