Like asymmetric sarong-styles, caftan-shapes and sari-silhouettes in vibrant shades of blue, turquoise, pink, orange and fuchsia, followed by a series of designs in black and white.

For their ss2014-collection they focused at the islands interaction with Greek culture in the ancient world. they used old photographs of ruined amphitheaters as prints.
