Dancer
A flirt with femininity, Dancer is that piece that makes you want to do a twirl.
Dancer is the collection I had to make after seeing two swans swimming in a lake of milky sea.
This magical moment made me want to pursue to make a pattern of swans swimming surrounded by the alluring blue, the same blue that I had bought a roll of fabric that I could not resist but that did not look good on its own. This shade of blue needed something more, something else. So it lay unused. Until one day. When I saw the swans and knew it would be perfect as part of a ruffle piece I wanted to make.

Dancer was originally meant to launch alongside a reversible collection. Unfortunately, due to challenges with the factory, that collection was never completed. The colorway intended for it has instead been brought to life in Dancer, through this striking gradient composition. I had long envisioned creating a gradient piece—and now it's here in a design that radiates elegance and confidence.
For this years release I took the help of my customers and friends who volenteered as modells. I even got a mother and daughter duo that I just simply adore, as many of my customers shop in generations after finding swimwear they actually like and feel proud of to wear.
