About Fluorescent Color
‘Light your body’

My use of fluorescent color is inspired by Carl Jung's writing, in particular, 'Memories, Dreams, Reflections'. It is my idea that wearing fluorescent color reveres the body pleasing the psyche by reflecting light to and from the body, therefore to and from the spirit. You can enhance your mood or state of mind by trying different colors. Fluorescent color appeals to the psycho-sexual and collective subconscious, and it is also fun to wear! Fluorescent lace 'glows under black light' and this is exciting, although not intended to be the only reason to wear it. 'Fluorescent' is also called 'Day-Glo' which is a trade name for 'Neon'.

Philosophy
‘Great fitting lingerie reveres the body’

My philosophy is to exalt to body with fineries and great fitting lingerie. I use multiple fabrics, laces, trims and color to create great fitting under-garments that function while at the same time are visually surreal. I like antique styling and intricate laces, combined with vibrant color as well as unexpected fabrics, prints and textures in lingerie.
