The Serpentine

Inspired by the pioneering modern dancer Loie Fuller, this collection interprets the fluid elegance of the Serpentine Dance. Fuller’s mesmerizing performances—where silk costumes flowed like liquid under stage lights—captivated audiences with their hypnotic grace and theatrical brilliance.

Drawing on the iconic imagery and movements of the Serpentine Dance, the collection celebrates both Loie Fuller’s artistry and the beauty of the female form. Each design features meticulously detailed drawings that capture every pleat, hem, and strand of hair, forming organic shapes that evoke motion and life.

A soft, ethereal color palette of blues, pale peach, and pale greens, combined with layered colour techniques, evokes light, transparency, and the ephemeral quality of stage performance. Subtle nods to the Art Nouveau era flow through the collection, with particular homage to Auguste Rodin’s Loie Fuller in the Lily Dance, grounding each piece in the intersection of movement, sculpture, and visual poetry.
