Discover A Lotus Whisper’s design story…

A Lotus Whisper tells a tale of the elopement of secret lovers. Inspired by the secret gardens of Changdeokgung Palace, Seoul, designer Zoe draws upon its ornate surroundings as well as inspirations by her favourite Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. The scarf depicts a graphical motif laid within a stylised ribbon reminiscent of the structure of a sacred Lotus flower, protecting those united in love, as well as safe-guarding those who journey by themselves. Poetically illustrated pagodas and other delicate graphical forms lace and intertwine within themselves, acting as a chrysalis, nurturing and strengthening love. The four intricate fans at each corner of the scarf are symbolic to a fan from the Northern Philippines which was given as a gift to Zoe as a young child. Each fan boats incomparable delicacy as they protect the Lotus flower and all entwined, casting good luck, wealth and longevity.
