Inspired by facets of meditative spirituality and travel, we present our very first Ready-To-Wear Collection on the runway at South African Fashion Week for our AW'20 Collection Entitled 'Pilgrim'.
"I designed this collection based on key pieces I always wanted to have in my wardrobe and just could not find them around, so I decided to make my own pieces. It was also important that my journey into meditation and finding true spirituality played a part in the designs", says Creative Director, Erin-Lee Petersen.
With the help of Chad Petersen, Director and accessories designer and the design team at Research Unit Studio, the pieces and looks fell beautifully into place. The pieces that are classic and timeless, yet contemporary and travel orientated, complimenting our travel goods.
We hope you like it.
