Softer Far than Sleep - FW19/20
"With me retreat, where skins of lambs I keep,
Whose wool's a pillow softer far than sleep."
- Theocritus, The Idylls (3rd century BC)
During the transition to cooler seasons, people tend to look for soft, warm and enveloping structures that soothe them, lull them into hibernation.
The connotation of 'softer than sleep' emphasizes an emotional understanding. It is about perception and sensation.
The moment silhouettes are shaped, softness and sleep turn into form. An aesthetic component comes into being.
The search for comfort during winter is what inspired the collection.
