This collection marks a new chapter in my exploration of nature’s beauty, delving into a hidden world where insects and flowers perform an intricate ballet. Symbiotic is a love letter to these forgotten wonders. It celebrates the crucial part that even delicate orchids and tiny insects play in the interconnectedness of life.
Collection prints showcase the endangered Ghost Orchid and the recently discovered Giant Sphinx Moth pollinator; the mesmerising beauty of the moth’s elegant wings and a tapestry of beetles, spiders, and insects.
Gossamer Damselfly wings inspire flowing silhouettes and sheer organzas. Gold foils shimmer like the iridescent shine of beetles, and a rich colour palette reflects the vibrant dance of this hidden world.
In a world facing biodiversity loss, this collection transcends fashion and reminds us of our dependence on these seemingly insignificant creatures. Just as the Ghost Orchid and its moth partner rely on each other, the fate of our planet depends on the preservation of all its inhabitants.
Lets celebrate the seemingly insignificant creatures who play a symbiotic role in our ecological balance, and together, protect this hidden world.
