From the Renaissance-inflicted work of a Philippines-born Californian-based artist known to the ethereal take on the colour pink by Scandi fashion designer Cecilie Bahnsen, our team zooms in on the artful creations out there we want to have and to hold.
“Haven’t you heard? Pink’s in for the new season – and my favourite colour. Plus there’s just something uplifting about Bahnsen’s light, voluminous silhouettes that make them perfect for ushering in the new year.”

“Fun fact about this shoe that looks set to join the cult ranks of the Triple S and Speed sneakers: While it’s sporty in outlook, it’s inspired by human musculature and its last is based off that of men’s dress shoes.”

“There’s always a sense of glee underlining the works of Ronquillo, known for cherubic beauties and marrying elements of folklore into her Renaissance-inflected paintings. This is from her most recent body of work: a beautiful interpretation of Emily Dickinson’s poem Hope is the Thing with Feathers.”
