Remembering people and things that we are thankful for, gives us:
Happiness that wraps us up
Energy to move on
Assurance that we are being accepted
Resilience to fight the battle
Thanksgiving!

Hence, 'Appreciation from the HEART' collection is born! *-)

'The Gift' collection

This is a collection serves as a fashion statement yet subtly reminds us to appreciate nature, our loved ones and ourselves. In giving thanks to others, the notion of presenting someone we appreciate with a gift is evident here, focusing on the ideas of gift-wrapping involving wraps, folds and layers that accentuate the sensual curves of the 21st century woman.

Just as a gift wrap embellishes and beautifies a gift, this collection enhances and brings out the beauty of women of sophistication with the same process and details using paper and fabric.

The concepts of Furoshiki, the famous Japanese wrap is evident in these creations using soft, luscious fabrics. Stylish, feminine and sensual, one who wears these creations will exude confidence in her own unique ways.
