I worked on this dye technique in Bali in early January - it’s manually dyed by hand, no printing.

Dye from the materials around our studio that’s immersed in Bali’s jungle; a series of folding and tying in layers. My goal was to create color and pattern combinations that are sophisticated and unique - A wearable canvas.

Available for order online after this Friday, March 13th.

We are purveyors in highly sustainable fashion, so expect some wait time. #slowfashion #fw26

A show featuring a fresh earthy palette of natural dyes, upcycled Italian fabrics, washed silks and hemp.

The Powerful Lyrics to the Epic Closing Walk from LAST NIGHT:

*

I’m not afraid of darkness, I shift it

You throw shade, I turn it into shine
You send pain, I make it divine
Every scar you tried to give me
I wear it like art, baby, Suck Me
Your words don’t break me, they bend into light
Your doubt just fuels my fire at night
I don’t fight, I transmute
I take your chaos, I make it truth

I shift energy, that’s my power
Pain to peace, storm to flower
Every shadow, I make it art
I turn your poison into heart
I shift energy, that’s my fire
I rise higher and higher and higher
I shift, I rise, I glow, I heal
That’s how I make the darkness kneel

Some behind-the-scenes of our recent shoot in Bali at @capellaubud amid the magical genius of interior designer and architect @billbensley.

I was blown away by every square meter of eclectic perfection. The visual history of the land and locals is resplendent, with touches of fanciful humour even on the porcelain throne. Engulfed by the jungle, no trees were cut down during the making of this special place.

Thank you @lexierodriguez and the Capella Ubud team!! The new collection, led by our natural dying processes in Bali, is launching soon ✨
