Opening October 23
Art meets Fashion
Lifelong friends, Rebecca Ribbons and Larissa Blake always admired each others creativity and passion.
One day we decided to explore it.
This is the result
REBECCA RIBBONS
'I use only few base styles and adapt each one in different ways depending on the fabric. I play with the fabric, get to know its feel, fold, drape, and mood. I listen to how it want’s to be expressed and start with that. Every fabric has it’s own personality, and I step into a co creative relationship with it to translate it into its form. To rebirth it. I want to give each garment the best chance of finding love and appreciation, to be cherished and cared for, to be given life and to give life on a body. To bring out the essence of a woman by making her look and feel beautiful. To help raise the vibrations of that woman, helping her in connecting her to the goddess energy she inherently holds. For her to feel the empowerment of it. The softness with the strength. To remember herself.
To bring more essential balancing feminine energy into the world.
