Collection Story: To Be Lived

'To Be Lived'

This is not just a collection inspired by a story.
It’s a collection waiting to become one.

In the heart of Tel Aviv, Nahalat Binyamin is a street with European charm and middle eastern energy and warmth.

For months, this street was part of my daily routine - the route from coffee, to the shuk, and then to the beach.

By day, it’s lined with fabric and haberdashery stalls that spill out onto the sidewalk like a living collage of textures and colours. Between the stalls of fabric, the walls of buttons and ribbons, and the hum of bargaining, it feels like a place where creativity is waiting to be turned into something tangible. This collection is the result of those everyday moments.

A place to fall in love. A place to dream. A place to be free.

I carry this memory around like one of those heart-shaped necklaces split in two. Some stories we tell. Others, we simply wear.
