LFW: DI PETSA SS24
This Reflections of Venus Spring/Summer 24 collection by DI PETSA tells the story of love, both received as well as self-love. The unconditional love for infants to the conditional love we experience based on the choices we make. Exploring a sense of loss and growth, through the mythology of Aphrodite, Goddess Venus the Erotic woman archetype.
During the show we see different reflections of Venus, representing various phases of a self-love journey and the centre of unconditional love. The collection is filled with tied-together drapery, long knitted dresses and unraveling straps and crossed ties and cut-outs.
DI PETSA has collaborated with SWAROVSKI for SS24 in a gleaming finale – a long white Wetlook bridal dress covered in SWAROVSKI crystals, imitating shiny droplets of water on the skin. New prints are shown, featuring earthly textures of sea foam and crystals. Healing crystals, glass beads and golden bells are featured in headpieces and accessoires, and embroidered onto clothes, making an ecstatic sound while being presented down the runway.
