Ver Sacrum

Ver Sacrum means “sacred spring” in Latin.

For the ancient peoples of the Italian peninsula, it was a celebration to stave off moments of crisis. Twenty-two centuries later, Ver Sacrum was the name given to the manifesto magazine of the Vienna Secession, of which Klimt was one of the founding fathers.

The name was given after the homonymous poem by Ferdinand V. Saar that called for the rebirth of art. Today, by giving this name to my collection, I entrust to you the sprout of a new spring.

May this be the seed of a new renaissance, ours. A rebirth of art, and ourselves through it. The return of beauty after a difficult time.

Black&Beardsley

Aubrey Beardsley was an English illustrator at the end of the 9th century. He illustrated several works and magazines in England and France.

He is particularly famous for his collaboration with O. Wilde. We also remember Beardsley for his eccentric and elegant style and his sincere social caricatures: refined scandalous images.

With this collection, I wanted to convey Beardsley’s confidence in his drawings and the sincere and audacious expression of his originality. Black&Beardsley is about authenticity without regrets. About being unapologetically ourselves.

Wear it, live it!
