About this listen
In this episode of The Fitting Room, Hazel sits down with Tigra (@tigra.sol) to explore fashion as ritual, rebellion, and self-liberation.
Tigra is a multidisciplinary visual artist, mother, mystic, and designer based between Bali and Sri Lanka, whose work blends ancestral memory, spiritual practice, fantasy, and sensuality into wearable art and visual storytelling.
She shares how Sri Lankan shamanic traditions and Balinese ceremonial aesthetics shape her relationship to clothing, from turning a simple thrifted scarf into a full look to creating one-of-a-kind garments as art. For Tigra, clothing is never “just clothes” — it is energy, intention, and spirit.
Together, they explore draping as a sacred practice, her love for niche diasporic designers like DIBBA, Esoteric World, Vintage Cartel, and Alfie’s Mission, and her journey toward dissolving external expectations in order to fully embody her truest self.
