Rest Day

 

A Much-Needed Rest Day in Istanbul 🌿✨

After days filled with fittings, sketches, and endless creative energy for my Milan Fashion Week collection, I gifted myself something equally important — a day of rest.

Istanbul is a city that never stops moving, but even in its vibrant rhythm, I found moments to pause and breathe. My rest day was about slowing down, enjoying the little things, and soaking in the atmosphere without rushing.

With headphones on, I let music become the soundtrack of my day as I sipped Turkish tea, reflected on the work done so far, and allowed my mind to reset. Sometimes, the best ideas come when you simply let yourself be still.

Later, I slipped into a sharper look — polka dots, blazer, and my signature hat — and stepped out just enough to feel the city’s pulse. Istanbul’s elegance has a way of blending into your spirit, reminding you that fashion isn’t only on the runway; it’s in how you carry yourself every moment.

This pause was more than just rest — it was restoration. It gave me the clarity and strength to step into the final stretch of this journey before Milan.

Because sometimes, the most powerful move in the creative process… is knowing when to recharge. 💫
