Sol is the fourth collection of silk scarves from Think Positive textile designer Emilie Cacace until the name of Andéol – her accessories label and textile project. Each collection Emilie travels somewhere new to explore the cultural heritage of that place, with a particular focus on its textile traditions. All her research and studies, she pours into her next collection. She has been to Guatemala, the Australian bushlands of Blackheath and Indian desert of Rajasthan, with new adventures on the horizon, including Japan and Morocco.
For this collection she took her designs inspired by her trip in the Australian bush to Mexico. Starting in Mexico City, visiting the home of Frida Kahlo, to the craft state of Oaxaca, to the golden sandy shores of Mazunte and the jungles of the Chiapas. Below are some of the photos from her journey. Her lookbook was shot with trinkets and collectables from all over Mexico.
