Moon Love Fall/Winter 2021 Campaign

 

 

The Fall/ Winter collection was dictated by 80’s vibes and most significant elements for the clothes designed by Angelika Józefczyk – tailored asymmetry, femininity, and the play of colors and contrast. The collection is based on high-quality materials like wool textiles, silks, shiny sequins. The clothes highlighted the woman's figure by tailored fitted shapes of suits and draped dresses.

 

 

The collection is a praise of femininity, inspired by the icons of the past decade of the 80's, such as Debbie Harry from the cult band Blondie or Diana Spencer. Raised shoulders, fitted cuts emphasizing the figure, wide stripes emphasizing the cut at the waist. These elements of the collection make the woman created by the designer very feminine and self-confident. The collection is classic, but there is no place for boredom. Browsing through individual clothes, we can find pearls such as timeless wool and cashmere coats in camel and dark green colors, embroidered silk velvet dresses. The collection also includes women's asymmetric suits characteristic for the designer.

The designer loves to come back to New York, she is inspired by the icons of pop culture of the past years, which is why the collection includes sequin dresses in the style of Debbie Harry from the Blondie team which could be combined with long knee-length boots, are styling simply ready to visit the popular Studio 54 in New York.

In the current season, the designer has decided to focus on quality and timeless classics, using materials from European producers, mainly from Italy and the UK. As always, production takes place in local family tailor's workshops, which maintain family traditions, paying great attention to the quality of workmanship.

St. Andrew's Day, celebrated on the 30th of November each year, is Scotland's official national day. This cherished holiday is a unique blend of history, tradition, and modern celebrations, featuring everything from feasts and parades to ceilidhs and storytelling.

Origins of St. Andrew's Day

The holiday's roots are deeply intertwined with the history of St. Andrew, one of Jesus Christ's twelve apostles. Andrew is said to have been crucified on an X-shaped cross on November 30, AD 60, which is now known as St. Andrew's cross or the Saltire and is the national flag of Scotland. Legend has it that some of St. Andrew's relics were brought to Scotland by St. Regulus. The site where he reportedly placed these relics, now known as the town of St. Andrews, became a prominent religious pilgrimage site during the Middle Ages and remains a significant historical location today.

St. Andrew's Day is a public holiday in Scotland but it is also widely celebrated by Scottish communities and organizations worldwide.

In Scotland, the day is marked by traditional activities such as ceilidh dancing, music, poetry reading, and storytelling.
There are also feasts featuring foods like haggis, neeps (turnips), tatties (potatoes) and Scotch whisky. Many cities stage grand parades and iconic landmarks illuminated in the national, blue color.

Around the globe, people of Scottish descent uphold their heritage by organizing St. Andrew's Day gatherings. These events often feature Scottish music, Highland dancing, and traditional Scottish meals. Some have also intertwined local traditions with these celebrations, creating unique interpretations of the holiday.

The day is celebrated uniquely in Poland, known there as "Andrzejki” which falls on the night of November 29. This holiday has a more romantic and mystical tone than the Scottish version. The tradition dates back to the 16th century and is filled with a series of fortune-telling rituals, typically revolving around matters of love and marriage.

One of the most popular traditions is wax divination, where hot wax is poured into cold water through a keyhole. Hardened wax shape or the shadow it throws on the wall is then interpreted to predict future events, often related to marriage and love.

Another popular tradition is the "shoe race," where girls line their shoes from the wall to the door. The owner of the shoe that reaches the door first is purported to be the first to get married.

Piercing a heart shaped card with names on the back is another fortune-telling game. The participants write female and male names on two separate cards and then stick a needle into the paper on the other side. The place with a hole in the card shows the name of the future spouse.

As modern times have evolved, so have the celebrations of "Andrzejki." Today, it is often marked with parties and gatherings where the fortune-telling rituals are performed in good fun. It is also considered an unofficial "last party" before the advent season, which leads up to Christmas. And to make the night even more enchanting, why not adorn yourself in a party dress designed by Angelika Józefczyk
