Creative encounters...

Inspired collaborations, beautiful stories.

In every aspect of life, whether personal or professional, and even in nature’s intuitive ways, there are sometimes encounters that are a bit more creative than others.
It’s a trend—brands, especially those that hold meaningful values like ethics, craftsmanship, and creativity, are now seeking partnerships.

Premium brands, for example, do not hesitate to invite a creative talent from another house to collaborate, creating something that reflects both identities, appealing to both their clients and new admirers.
We love this trend of partnerships; it’s moving in the right direction. It benefits communities that typically enjoy the results of these creative collaborations, and it’s great for creativity itself, much like innovations that inspire change.
One example is the community of food lovers, who just witnessed a sweet, crunchy creative encounter with a hint of savory.

Together, they’ve created a crunchy praline with natural flavors like pistachio, caramel, or Earl Grey. Together, they’re better!
The fragrance community, especially Guerlain enthusiasts, also witnessed a creative encounter, with the collaboration of Roseline d’Oreye (read her interview) a talented illustrator, art therapy expert, and founder of her own silk accessory line.

We love this story because it involves two houses we are quite familiar with: Guerlain, a partner during our platform's launch, and Roseline, who is one of our editorial Insiders. Guerlain crafts perfumes, while Roseline creates designs for her line of silk scarves and accessories.

To celebrate the opening of their new boutique in Brussels, Guerlain enlisted Roseline to sketch portraits of select clients and wonderful bespoke illustrations of their favorite perfume during a series of exclusive events introducing their new setting in the capitale.

Jewelry has also met eyewear, as well as a legendary Belgian fashion house joining forces with a global beauty and wellness brand—two more examples of creative encounters fueling trends and adding style! Natan, the unmissable Belgian fashion house, partnered with Sisley Paris to create two iconic accessories: a stunning handbag with incredible character and a lipstick—two must-haves that bring an extra touch of class to any outing, making this collaboration exceptionally glamorous and catchy.
