Wings of Dreams

 Odaya image

In a world of indulgence and diversity of supply when we can obtain almost any shape and colour of any possible item we may or may not need, it may be difficult to imagine a foregone world when the scarce raw materials were largely the same.  Europeans, specifically, had domesticated a certain variety of animal and plant fibers, dyed them in colours found in their immediate surroundings, applied weaving and embroidery techniques that were ubiquitous and, expectedly, arrived at very similar end products – clothes and home textiles that served a utilitarian purpose in most cases and looked and felt very similar.

Yet, a human is a creature of cravings and as social structures persisted so did the urge to stand out, establish status and mark it most ostensibly.  What used to be the function of tattoos became an opportunity for clothing and other precious textiles – an outlet for one’s creative self, a mark for special occasions, a status symbol at social gatherings.  It is no surprise then that the urge to engage in international trade, when that became possible, provoked the arduous intercontinental transportation of textiles and dyes in particular.  Previously unknown materials added a distinguished accent in the dress of the privileged few.

Fast forward countless centuries to the twentieth, little had changed.  People in the rural areas of Europe would mostly use the same few types of fabrics to sew clothes for the everyday, while people of higher means would still crave limited access to delicate, exotic fabrics and dyes that were imported from afar.  But any of them would value the personal touch that a handmade lace or embroidery would yield on their dress.  Certain areas in Italy and France would establish schools for lacemakers, who would compete to devise the most elaborate and beautiful designs for their dearest family members or most exquisite customers.

It was a stunningly simple model of a neckline lace design that drew our attention when sifting through another treasure chest in a village off the beaten path in the Western Rhodopi Mountains.  A series of beautiful, curvy leaves were knit together to form a pattern that combined the tenderness of form with a tight hold, beauty and structure woven together.  The eye is comforted by the curves and the mind assured through the robust design.

We took the model out, tested it with threads of different thickness, finish, and colour until we set the final collection.  Our craftswomen who subsequently knit the design have polarised experiences with it.  Some of them prefer it to more ornate models such as the Luxury Lattice or Care and Love.  Others would dread it for its constant turnarounds and countless elements in a set, which take a heavy toll on the hours.  There is not one of them, however, who grows tired of the final result.

We had a number of working titles for this collection.  The first one was through an association with cloves, due to its leafy form.  Knowing the pristine village that was the origin of the model, it was a becoming direction. Then I asked my 4-year-old daughter one evening how she would name the model, and the spontaneous answer was “Crowns!” Knit with the fuchsia mercerised cotton threads that we use, which have a bit of a glow with the evening lights, the model does have a royal feel to it, so Crowns it was and that is still the name of the collection in our internal files and systems.

Yet, after a half year in production and so many women who shared their individual experience breathing life into it, our go-to-market decision was for “Wings of Dreams.”  It takes so many wings to spread to make a dream come true, a dream of beauty, craftsmanship, and heritage, a distinguished design that elevates the spirit and adds a unique note to every home.
