This season Samantha Pleet was inspired by the journals Charles Darwin kept during his early voyages to Tiera del Fuego. The collection's accompanying film follows a heroine explorer, much like Darwin himself, lost at sea who eventually stumbles upon the dream world of Arcadia: An Eden-like mythical island paradise. It's a place of feminine healing and liberation where free thought, peace, and sensual pleasure are the preferred currency. We learn through our reluctant protagonist that you can only find paradise through an open mind and a taste for adventure.
This short, but beautiful film gives me chills every time I watch it. It's has a wonderful sense of humor, but also taps into a deep longing I think a lot of us have. Hope you enjoy and stay tuned for the full look book!
