CAN SPORT UNITE US? explores whether sport can create connection across political and cultural divides. Developed around the FIFA World Cup, the project reflects on the relationship between Germany and the United States and questions whether a shared passion for sport can bring two cultures closer together.

The styling physically merges both worlds: traditional German references such as Lederhosen, Dirndl and classic shirts are paired with American football jerseys, while Western boots and denim meet German football shirts. By mixing recognisable elements from both cultures, the looks turn the idea of connection into a visual dialogue.

Rather than providing a clear answer, the project leaves the question open: Can sport unite us?
