When I first started planning for this collection, my initial idea was to go to the library to look for inspiration. It had already been a year since the launch of Wearshop. Looking back and reflecting on the year that passed, I found myself with the recurrent thought that I wanted to move forward, making sure that my work stayed connected to who I was.
While it is important to work hard and aim high, it is also important not to mistake your right foot for your left. It’s equally important to remember that material things are secondary. Being a kind, decent human being is actually the most important thing, something some of us tend to forget. Build a monument that people will remember.
In our original plan for our Mother's Day article, we wanted to highlight the way female world leaders have been facing the pandemic crisis. While we have been celebrating female leaders from New Zealand to Iceland who have been responding to the Coronavirus with such strength and grace in these unprecedented times, we noticed a trend: we love to celebrate women who do it all.
At the end of one year and beginning of another, we start to think of things we’ll resolve to do over the next 52 weeks that will somehow make us a different version of ourselves. Resolutions do not need to come from a place of guilt, they can come from a place of ambition. It doesn’t need to only be career ambition, it’s ambition in all areas of life. Leave your comfort in 2019, and consciously do things that will challenge you.
