2020 - The disruption
In an extended moment of self-reflection, amid an extreme social disruption and an exhilarating personal migration, I am slowly starting to plot a future. A future that brings me renewed joy and excitement in an environment that is supportive and nurturing, with the continued support of my fantastical SIESambassadors.

Celebrating 10 year of SIES!isabelle at SA Fashion Week...
...it was a true reflection of where I feel that fashion needs to go forward here. I staged an impromptu installation in the foyer of Fashion week, creating a forest floor for my muses to inhabit.
I want to bring the magic of fashion week into everyday I want to smudge the lines of when you are "allowed" to wear what...do what brings you joy... Be the warrior queen your were born to be!
When I design I want to create something that makes my muse feel like a queen. My absolute highlight is the look when she sees herself and just basks in own glow for a minute. My goal is to create dresses that take her away from everyday and into a world where she can just be herself and twirl under the stars.

...finding the balance between love, femininity and artistic creativity
This collection is delicate, a voyeuristic view into my magical dream world. The story starts with my muse wrapped in a luxurious leisure-wear cocoon of natural fabrics. She spends the morning playing with her children in the park and her evenings floating about in decadent silk creations.
