Womens Pre-Spring 2023 Collection

My AW22 collection took me inward. As Spring approached, I slowly emerged from the cocoon I had created. I knew my collection was to be mono-colour. I visited a museum with my partner, where we stumbled upon a hall that was dedicated to the Egyptians. I saw many pieces of jewellery, mostly handcrafted using Lapis Lazuli. This stone was revered by the Egyptians and is known as “The Sky Stone”. The Egyptians believed that it enhanced wisdom and provided mental clarity. It was at that moment, that I knew, this stone was the next stone to have a collection dedicated to it. I felt like I was connected to my higher Self.
