LotusMith

This collection was conceived in the quiet after the storm of the pandemic — a time of reflection, resilience, and renewal. The lotus became my guiding symbol: a flower that rises from murky waters yet blooms with clarity and purity. It speaks to transformation, to finding grace and light even after difficult circumstances.

The pieces embody this journey. Fluid silks and airy chiffons suggest movement and release, while soft tailoring grounds the collection with strength. Petal-inspired motifs unfurl across dresses and knits, echoing the lotus in bloom. A palette of olive, ivory, and sage holds the memory of earth and still water, while accents of coral and peach carry the warmth of life returning.

This is a story of hope and of becoming — a reminder that beauty and resilience can emerge even in the most uncertain of times.
