What do stars smell like? Inspired by The Little Prince and childhood wonder, The Smell of Stars imagines the scent of the cosmos—gunpowder, ozone, burning metal—and transforms it into texture, form, and emotion. Burned fabrics mimic the intensity of space, while smoky gradient sequins, delicate lace, and sculptural boning reflect the shimmer and structure of the universe. Each piece is a poetic journey through memory, curiosity, and imagination. Wear the stars. Feel the story.
