when i saw stella jean’s  2014 spring collection,

 a vivid, dizzying affair of eye candy,

i was amazed. the more i saw, the more i wanted to see.

i discovered that every piece reflects her global cultural background,

–born of an a haitian mother and italian father, she grew up in rome–

her fabrics are woven in Burkina Faso by local artisans

in coordination with the Ethical Fashion initiative, then

wax-printed with her motifs in Java, and produced in the Nederlands.

refreshing!!
