ABOUT THE ‘UNBOXME’ COLLECTION
I designed this collection while packing my life in dozens of boxes before moving to Paris. I was surrounded with cardboard boxes, duct tape and wrapping materials. I’ve always had a thing for brown cardboard boxes and their esthetics. I love them!
The inspiration for designing the collection is drawn from the feeling you get when you untie a ribbon. The focus and importance of packaging, putting effort in the embellishment and the wrapping of objects. The “Unboxing” act becoming the main event.
I thought about how interesting it would be to pack a bow ribbon inside a box instead of out. The ribbon- an embellishment normally meant for decorating, now becomes the piece itself, an object that needs to be giftwrapped.
Each of these exclusive bridal pieces is handcrafted with great attention to detail, using top of the line silk, lace, pearls and Swarovsky crystals. All pieces are hand embroidered with original techniques , in the purpose of forming a light, beautiful and effortless selection of headpieces.
This collection celebrates the wrapping and unwrapping, the packing and the unpacking, the gifting and receiving.
