This season also launches the Hearts & Hands Project, a long-term creative and conservation initiative shaped in collaboration with biodiversity scientist Dr. Jennifer McGowan. Together, they are evolving the brand’s vision through transparent sourcing, environmental education, and storytelling that protects what it celebrates.

"So decorative you could imagine displaying it in your home, as well as wearing it."
