SS25 | Wax and Gold

ሰምና ወርቅ - Wax and Gold is an Ethiopian poetic form. The term derives from the work of a goldsmith, who constructs a clay mold in wax, then draining the wax, pours molten gold into that form. The Wax is the surface and the Gold the hidden truth revealed through reflection.

This editorial is a meditation on the layered meaning and duality of femininity: soft yet authoritative, structured yet fluid, composed yet unrestrained.
