Spring 23 | ‘Odyssey’ Campaign

Odyssey

Discover Spring 23 ‘Odyssey’: an ode to the spirit of adventure.

 

Singing of escapes to far-flung places, ‘Odyssey’ is a love letter to the allure of a grand sojourn.

 

While designing the collection, Aje Co-founders Edwina Forest and Adrian Norris found themselves reminiscing on summers spent seeking respite in the idyllic isles of Greece. Enchanted by a shared sense of escapism entwined with the islands’ ancient aura, the creation of ‘Odyssey’ began.

Inspired by Aphrodite’s island origin myth, the goddess’ shell manifests in a myriad of feminine forms, combining pleated organza fans with billowing silhouettes, sinuous seam lines with abstract scalloped hems, and sculptural minaudières with textural hardware.

Recalling hazy afternoons beneath the island sun, vivid hues contrast against tranquil earth tones throughout the collection, with bold infusions of bougainvillea, flushed scarlet and deep indigo offset by soft neutrals.
