Discovering Identity

Like a fingerprint, the pattern on each dress is an inscription of one’s own identity.

“Walking through the village of Chalchihuitan I noticed that all of the women wore dresses with a similar shape and structure.” – Yael

Stark white fabrics, short sleeves and boxy silhouettes make up the foundation of each dress.

Only when you stand close do you see the uniqueness of each piece.

Family histories and the stories of ancestors create a pattern for the embroidery.

We each possess experiences of the past, hopes for the future and expectations for the present.

Wearing this dress is a way of identifying yourself.

“When meeting the dressmakers I witnessed the sets for completing each unique piece. The women shared the meaning and importance of their designs.” – Yael

“You will come to recognize the pattern as your own, just as I have.” – Yael

Study every detail of the dress as you become connected to your inner and outer self.

Wearing this dress with confidence means you have found your identity with its design.

Jean Luc Connan + FTWWL

Inspiration from around the world comes to life in a multitude of mediums: clothing, jewelry, accessories and furniture (that’s right, furniture!).

FTWWL is featuring the work of:

Jean Luc Connan

P1140291 - Version 2

Connan’s use of fabric, embroidery and bold accessories like pompom tassels, are at the foundation of his uniquely designed home décor collection.

P1140280 - Version 2

Fabrics from Lake Titicaca, Peru are paired with cloth from Uzbekistan, where cultural diversity is plentiful.

Like a map, the embroidered cushions tell a story of rituals, scarifies, gods and goddesses. The Tumi axe is symbolic for good luck among Peruvians. The large tassels hanging from each end symbolize the Uru women living in Peru, who decorate their hair with pom pom and beads.

P1140304 - Version 2

Animal printed fabric trails along the edges of the chair, like a winding road through the hills and valleys of China’s landscape.

Have you ever sat in a chair covered with Swarovski crystals? Take a moment to enjoy the little things. The wooden frame is accented with crystals that will sparkle in the sunlight.

P1140263 - Version 2

 

Big enough to house two souls, united in love, with honor for one another and the gifts that the world has to offer.

Connan’s love seat is a one-of-a-kind piece that was created with love.

By bringing the wonders of the world together in his Paris studio, Connan has discovered the key to beauty, peace and everlasting love.
