"This season, look and feel heavenly in my spectacular 'Ecclesia' Couture Collection. Inspired by 12th century polymath and powerfrau Hildegard von Bingen's multifaceted life, I created a stained-glass mosaic print in luminous colors, using unique symbols that shine a light on your own talents and passions. The design was printed digitally on smooth, recycled microfiber, a green choice that the eco-warrior nun herself would have appreciated. Lingerie meets 'high' fashion in the bold, graphic straps that frame your curves like the uplifting, high-rising arches of a cathedral. To bolster your spirit, I enriched the lining of the bottoms with one of Hildegard's most beautiful quotes: 'Even in a world that is being shipwrecked, remain brave and strong.' Add a stylish, versatile scarf and a luxurious kimono to complete a look that says: I dare to create my own heaven on earth!"

This season, we shed a mosaic stained-glass light on Hildegard von Bingen: a woman so multi-talented and influential, we're not afraid to call her the Leonardo da Vinci of her time. Both a saint and a scientist, a prophet and politician, a proto-feminist and an early eco-warrior, this 12th-century German nun founded two monasteries, composed an entire catalogue of sacred music - still in Amazon's top 100 today! - and penned nine books on subjects ranging from botany to cosmology to human sexuality (including the Western World's first known description of the female orgasm). The secret of Hildegard's boundless energy and inspiration? Her 'Ecclesia' or inner church: a source of divine love and radiant light which, according to Hildegard, resides in each one of us. “Humanity, take a good look at yourself. Inside, you’ve got heaven and earth, and all of creation. You’re a world—everything is hidden in you.”
This season's Ecclesia' Couture Collection is an invitation to visit your inner church and discover the multi-colored mosaic of your hidden talents. Let's tap into the luminous life energy that connects us all - the 'Greening Power', as Hildegard called it - and CREATE! After all, to quote the unruly mystic herself: if we were truly made in God's image, aren't we all creators too? Dare to shine your brilliant light. You are divine.
"I, the fiery life of divine essence, am aflame beyond
the beauty of the meadows."
- Hildegard von Bingen
This incredible Couture collection features an allover digital print that is inspired by stained glass windows. Take a closer look at the print, and you'll recognize the pendants of the other Hildegard van Bingen-inspired lingerie collections in the design. This is the print of prints! By printing digitally, we save about 50-60 liters of water per meter of fabric. Combined with the recycled fabric, this collection is a treat for both your curves and your conscience. And last but not least: bold, black straps create a graphic play of lines while framing your curves.
