Felicia Akerstrom x SESSEI

From the very beginning of SESSEI, incredible women have made us shine with infinite elegance. For our second anniversary, we were keen to honor them. They are so creative, generous, and independent; just like the women I love.

I'm so proud to present our first co-creation with Felicia Akerstrom. A Korean-Swedish blogger and content creator, she first lived in New York before settling in Stockholm. Felicia chose to reinterpret her two favorite pieces from our collection: the Kaia oversized shirt and the Erica shorts in a beautiful sky blue Italian poplin highlighted with a delicate white and navy stripe with masculine accents. Two pieces that reflect her everyday style: effortless, feminine, and timeless.

On the occasion of the launch of our co-creation, we spoke with Felicia who shared her impressions of the creative process with us.

How do you identify with Sessei's DNA?

Quality and timelessness are values ​​I value when it comes to my personal style. Sessei's creations embody this perfectly. Beautiful materials, attention to detail, and perfect cuts create the elegant and effortless pieces I love so much.

What place do you give to eco-responsibility in your way of consuming today?

I'm a big believer in "buying less, but buying better." I'm very selective about what I consume and always think carefully about every purchase I make. Even though I'm sometimes tempted by trends, I always opt for timeless pieces that I can see myself wearing for the next ten years.

Why did you choose the Erica shorts and the Kaia shirt as the starting point for your design?

The choice was easy because the Kaia shirt has been a staple in my wardrobe for several years. It's one of those pieces I wear regularly. I love that it's a little oversized and feels both cool and stylish. The Erica shorts pair so well with the Kaia shirt, and matching sets are a chic formula I always appreciate.

What motivated the choice of this particular cotton poplin?

I wanted to create a look that was both chic and comfortable, and I think choosing this specific cotton poplin helped us achieve that goal. Blue and white stripes are a timeless combination that I personally love and that never disappoints.

After several weeks of waiting, how did you feel when you finally discovered the pieces we had imagined?

Discovering the final result was an amazing feeling; it was everything I had imagined and more. I found myself wearing both pieces quite often this spring, both separately and together, proving their versatility.

In one word, how would you describe this capsule?
