This past weekend was International Women's day and it serves as a reminder of the importance of being equal. No matter what gender, time will come when this day will be every day. In honour of this special day we had created a dress for our mom. She is our heart, our strength, our biggest supporter and inspiration! We love her sense of humour, her kindness, her selflessness and for loving us both unconditionally through good days and bad days :) This was another great collaboration with my supermodel mom, my brother William, and our stylist/photographer Colin.
Our mom loves to dance, and she's always full of life. We wanted to keep things light and airy, with this classic halter dress with fringe details at the bottom to reflect our mom's upbeat personality. She's always full of smile and can make us laugh no matter what. She's beautiful inside and out.
Here's our min video montage of our collection
With the daylight savings time change there's more bright and sunny spring days to come. We're ready for spring in this two toned colourful jersey dress with abstract patterns. Now all we need is a portable wind machine to make our hair flow like Beyonce :)
As I'm writing this, I'm listening to some good sexy disco tunes from the disco queen herself, Donna Summer. I love to love you baby.... xox in this hot pink soft leather dress. This is for our girls who are fiercely independent, who owns their sexuality but still holds onto her sweet innocent nature. Think Pink, it does the body good!
Our last dress all came together as I was listening to Diana Ross, Debbie Harry of Blondie and Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac. They were all 70's style icons, all three were different and diverse. What they all had in common were great music and amazing style.
We don't limit ourselves to any one type of music. I always say to our friends that musically we are (1/4 dance/disco/pop) + (1/4 jazz/r&b/hiphop) + (1/4 folk/singer-songwriter) + (1/4 symphony/classical). We love all types of music.
This nude dress with fringe details was our homage to modern 1970's glamour. Part fringy gypsy Stevie Nicks , with a sexy diva attitude of Diana, and a heart of glass just like Debbie Harry's Blondie.
Again, thanks to all of our Paswera lovers who are following our journey as we humbly continue to be creative, and live life through its many ups and downs. We carry this poem that my mom has written and we would like to share it with you all:
You
You are the person that has to decide
Whether you do it or toss it aside
You are the person who makes up your mind
Whether you lead or will linger behind
Nobody here will compel you to rise
No one will force you to open your eyes
No one will answer for you yes or no
Whether to stay or whether to go
What do you wish?
To be known as a shirk,
Known as a good person who is willing to work
Scorned for a loafer or praised by your chief
Rich man or poor man, beggar or thief
All of these are questions that you must decide
Or just be content to stay where you hide
Take it or leave it there's always something to do
Just think it over it's all up to you
-Ruby Pasco
Until next week, Paswera Label loves you.
