inspiration
Ethereal comes from the designer’s contact with precious gemstones and the passion transmitted by her parents, both jewellers and gemmographers. The collection is based on the concept of the divine expressed through the purity of the king of stones – the diamond – which has always been appreciated for its rarity and brilliance but also for its extraordinary ability to evoke the idea of charm and refinement. Hence the idea of revisiting classic garments in a modern key, combining plays of transparency and fabrics capable of reflecting light, in a sustainable style that resists both trend and the passing of time.

Concept
Lena, who has always been attracted by the elegance and durability of diamonds, reinterprets the concept of sustainability by linking it to its temporal meaning. Against the fashion of waste, clothes acquire a strong symbolic meaning and become jewellery, lasting, like diamonds, forever. The lines are sharply defined, the shapes geometric. A characteristic element is also the fight against gender conventions, which is embodied in an increasingly blurred delimitation between what is masculine and what is, instead, feminine. Strength and lightness, opacity and transparency, light and shadow mix to create a great creative idea.
