, explores the geometric shapes of snowflakes seen under a microscope, alongside more organic forms, cleaved with deep, jeweled cracks. The message is glacier-clear, and it won the hearts of the jury at the 2021 Hyères Festival, who awarded her the Grand Prix for Accessories, a prestigious industry springboard that comes with mentorship and the chance to produce a second collection with one of the Métiers d'Art subsidiaries of Festival sponsor, Chanel.
Amazing! Hyères Festival is all about creativity, pushing design boundaries and is a lot of fun. The Villa Noailles is like a big family, open-minded and very supportive of young designers. I had no idea how people would react, or whether they would be as passionate about phytoplankton as I am! But they were curious about the story behind the collection and how it was made in collaboration with Desrues.
Working with Desrues was an incredible experience, but also challenging for both of us. The Maison is used to making fashion jewelry, and I make fine jewelry, so we both had to push ourselves during the process. I chose to work with them, because I got a great feeling when I visited their workshop and met the team, and they were very enthusiastic about my ideas. That was important, as it was my first time working in collaboration with another workshop.
This era is probably worse than the gilded era. People in trades and crafts don’t even know what defines their profession.
