Luxury & Power

This collection is inspired by the tsarinas of the Russian Empire, specifically the empress Catalina la Grande (Catherine the Great) who was the greatest exponent of luxury and power. A woman who took the reins of her life and who even conspired against her husband. Her reign lasted for 34 years during which she transformed Russia, by incorporating political changes both legal and moral. She had no qualms about having multiple lovers as long as they corresponded with luxury and wealth. Catalina was passionate about medicine, education and especially art and culture. The Winter palace in St. Petersburg where she lived, is currently the headquarters of the Hermitage Museum, which houses one of the greatest collections of art which she started from various pieces she bought during her reign.

“Luxury and power were the hallmarks of the Empress Catherine the Great”.
