LIGHT AGAINST SKY IS INSPIRED BY THE ILLUMINATION

OF STAINED GLASS WINDOWS AND THE DOME LIGHT OF

HAGIA SOPHIA.  THESE MAGNIFICENT PIECES OF ART

CONVEY STUNNING BEAUTY BY TRANSFORMING LIGHT

INTO DIAPHONOUS SHADES THAT BOTH ENVELOPE AND

ILLUMINATE.

THE SPRING 2009 COLLECTION REPRESENTS PURE,

MODERN ELEGNCE.  LIGHT AND AIRY TEXTURES ARE

CREATED THROUGH THE BLENDING OF VIVID AND

BRIGHT NEUTRAL COLORS IN NATURAL MATERIALS SUCH

AS SILK, LINEN COTTON, AND ORGANDY.  DECIDEDLY

SOFT, DELICATE AND PLAYFUL SILHOUETTES ARE

FORMED TO EVOKE A SENSE OF SWEET SOPHISTICATION

AND BLISSFUL ROMANTICISM.

BY CREATING UNIQUE AND MOVING TEXTURES THROUGH

ARTFULLY HAND-DRAPED FABRICATION AND PATCH

WORK SURFACE DETAILS MOLDED ONTO A FOUNDATION,

THE COLLETION MAKES NEW USE OF THE ESSENCE

ARCHITECTURE.  CARRYING LIGHT AND MOVEMENT,

THESE PIECES HOLD AND MAINTAIN AN IMPLICIT BEAUTY,

PLAYFUL AND SERENE, METICULOUS AND EFFORTLESS,

SIMPLE AS COLORED GLASS, YET AS DETAILED AS A

STAINED GLASS WINDOW.
