The creation of the collection
Ancient Egypt has fascinated me for as long as I can remember. In 2023, I finally traveled there to see the pyramids -something I had dreamed of since childhood. Inspired by Cleopatra, I created a modern collection for the queen of today, because who wouldn't want to embody her? She was draped in gold and carnelian, adored by men, and exuded power and beauty in every detail.
I studied papyrus drawings and sarcophagus paintings while in Cairo, then spent a year curating luxurious fabrics from Italy and bringing them to life in Miami. The process was a true labor of love, blending ancient inspiration with modern craftsmanship.
Creating this collection as an ode to cultural icons like Cleopatra and Nefertiti has been the highlight of my journey. I hope you feel the connection and passion in every piece.
This limited edition collection is from my heart to yours
—an everlasting tribute to the modern-day Egyptian queen. You.
