Summary
For Women’s History Month, we drew inspiration from the fearless and legendary Joan of Arc—a woman who defied societal expectations and led an army with unwavering conviction. Channeling the essence of her extraordinary journey, we created three distinct designs, each symbolizing a different chapter of her life. Our color palettes transition from soft, airy hues to deep, dramatic tones, visually narrating her transformation from a humble village girl to a formidable warrior and, ultimately, a martyr. Every detail in our designs is intentional—bold accessories like chains and grommets echo the strength of her armor, while our structured tops embody the resilience and fortitude she carried into battle. Together, these elements create a cohesive collection that not only honors Joan of Arc’s indomitable spirit but also reimagines her legacy through a modern lens.
