‘The Lotus-Eaters’ Collection
In Homer’s Odyssey, Odysseus came upon the land of the Lotus-Eaters,
where the lotus stole from men all longing for home.
And this summer, in Sharm el-Sheikh,
I too surrendered—to crystalline waters, corals scattered in a thousand colours, and palm trees swaying beneath the sun.
Like Odysseus beneath the spell of the lotus,
I found it all too easy to forget the desire to return.
A fleeting dream, gone almost as soon as one wakes.
When Odysseus left the island, he carried not a moment of it with him.
How fortunate, then, that I have distilled mine into clothes—
each memory preserved in fabric,
to be unveiled one by one before they, too, slip away.

‘Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours’
She delicately opened the envelope, her fingertips gracefully caressing the card. Petals from the letter gently fluttered down as she unfolded it.
Pale pink petals entwined with the delicate folds of her La Perla skirt, imparting their hue onto the fabric. Brewing a bright pink, akin to that Blumarine form-fitting dress. Another crimson rose petal tumbled from the envelope, landing on the vibrant red silk of her Valentino blouse, drifting down slowly, withering into a deep brown, mirroring the essence of that woven rose skirt from Dolce & Gabbana in 1997. Elegant, romantic, timeless.
Petals scattered on the ground, her gaze then shifted to the words on the card.
"Dear me,
Love Yourself.
From me."
This was a letter from her, to her, from the heart.
