Crafted from the delicate remnants of lingerie fabrics of lingeriebrand Nue Memoirs, Mother of Pearl embodies the intersection of strength and fragility. The soft hues suggest the warmth of connection and love. Layers of colored textiles swirl together like the iridescence of a pearl’s shell, evoking the intimate journey of life inside. Once meant for adornment, these textiles are repurposed into a tapestry of rebirth, illustrating how beauty can emerge from what is overlooked.
It celebrates the feminine power to nurture, protect, and transform, offering a reminder that life’s most precious treasures are often hidden within.
