COSMIC WONDER
Celestial Aura
Mythic dress collection
Where do I come from?
Where do you come from?
From the Sun, the Moon, from Venus, Sirius, Pleiades…. and further still
The light we are wearing is the light of the stars
Even if we do not know their names
We appeared in ancient myths
Stories that flicker in every star’s light
The mythic roots form a personal and poetic art
That tells us to fasten the sky to this earth and to illuminate beauty
Clothing that bears the traces of ancient layers of starlight
