And so.. The adventure begins

All my work as a feminist designer is inspired by muses. Powerful female icons from past and present. Although women have been marginalized for centuries, archetypes of female power have always been there. Through my designs, I bring them to you. To help us shape the world of modern-day feminism.

This season, we celebrate the fearless female adventurers who followed their crazy dreams to the coldest, most unforgiving places on earth: the North- and South Pole. From polar bear-hunting Louise Arner Boyd who became the first woman to fly over the North Pole, to Inuit translator Tookoolito whose courage and survival skills saved all the members of the ill-fated Polaris expedition in 1871. These badass polar explorers are my muses - the pilots, scientists, climbers and dreamers who restored women to their proper place in history, which is: anywhere we bloody want to go.

So, let's boldly step into the ice-cold unknown. Dare to dream, and dare to dream extreme. As our adventurous Ice Queens proved: impossible is nothing. Dare to grow, by letting your heart guide you like the unwavering Polaris (or North Star), while embracing the power of perseverance, symbolized by the Polar bear. The one day, realizing your have redrawn the map of your life, you simply dare to be. Perhaps your life itself will become a map - a bright shining Polaris for future generations.

This season, get your winter glow on in my 'Polaris' Couture Collection. I combined my own North Star-inspired 'knitting' pattern with dapper shoulder straps and faux-leather details that evoke an adventurer's spirit. A silver-plated Polar bear pendant is the perfect 'icing' on the cake, together with the rhinestones that I sprinkled on the design like ice crystals. With the motto gracing the lining of the bottoms - 'Dare to get lost to find yourself' - I dare you to explore the uncharted territories of your soul. And so, the adventure begins...
