​
Through her artistic narrative, Vanessa Baernthol reflects the fusion between feared artifacts and the artistrotic touch of the past, in a modern context. Drawing upon her background as fashion designer, stylist and creative director, Baernthol finds her essence in self expression and the profound allure of layering. This essence serves as foundation of the brand's identity, encapsulating the interplay between dark elements and modern sensibilities. Central to her artistic vision in design practice is the juxtaposition of the aesthetic of the ugly and the fundamental essence of beauty, reimagining them within a new context to enable diverse interpretations.
​
For her SS25 collection, she delves into the transformative process of self-worth translated into contradictory dramatic silhouettes between opulent volume and constricting tightness. Delicate, sheer pearl elements perforated with spikes form a protective yet aggressive appearing face veil. The passion imbued in the unique handcrafted pearl objects symbolizes a profound dialogue between the architectural craftsmanship of jewelry transposed onto garments.
