Renaissance De La Fleur

Ara Lumeire’s A/W 19 collection is called Renaissance De La Fleur (Rebirth of a Flower) that uses fallen flora that is handpicked, pressed and used as embellishment for brooches and lapel pins. The title and process is metaphorically in tune with the goals of the brand to “give new life to the survivors”

While all Ara Lumiere collections have the perennial aesthetic of victory over violence, with each season we focus on a different aspect of what makes the Ara Lumiere women so inspiring. The previous season focused on the dignity and magnanimity through structure and embellished feathers, with AW 19 we took a vibrant maximalist direction. Ara Lumeire’s A/W 19 collection is called Renaissance De La Fleur (Rebirth of a Flower) that uses fallen flora that is handpicked, pressed and used as embellishment for brooches on headgears and lapel pins. The title and process is metaphorically in tune with the goals of the brand to “give new life to the survivors” . Marrying triumphant designs with vibrant shades with a play of shimmer and volume, this collection is the ultimate celebration of the optimism and positivity of the survivors their circumstances would not break. Each of our designs is inspired from the personal journeys of the survivors, and this season specifically is a tribute to the relentless optimism in the face of adversity. In india we have a notion that hardship must beget sobriety, and we wanted to change that. While our survivors are strong and dignified, they are also allowed to be playful and eclectic in their creative expression. Each piece is a couture cocoon of the survivor's personality and we hope that this collection would transport you to the effervescent gardens that the survivors have imagined!
