I’D RATHER HAVE ROSES ON MY TABLE THAN DIAMONDS ON MY NECK
Alithia was inspired by the differences between the Western and Asian
(in particular Japanese) way of thinking of composition, harmony,
proportion and space. Japanese kimonos and architect Tadao Ando’s way
of moving the viewer with the use of light contrast in his buildings
were both very inspirational to her. With this in mind she researched
darkness and light, voids and cut-outs, flowers and water. Her
collection mixes elements as romantic and fragile as a flower with
something so crude and long lasting as a modern building.
