"I went home for this collection. Croatia, Bosnia, Hungary. Back to a world of folklore tradition. A time when energy, movement. connection were the key to life.
The heart of this collection is inspired by the circle dance. Kolo. The oldest form of Croatian folk dance, the women and their intricate colourful costumes. an expression of community, especially in village life. the Kolo was the centre of social life. Dance. Love. Party. Music. Young men and women used this dance for courting and teasing one another. a romantic tool. For falling in love. Singing. Expressing themselves, when words fail to tell their story."
