Lydia Tomlinson x SESSEI
I am so proud to present to you our second co-creation with Lydia Tomlinson. An English content creator currently based in London, Lydia has chosen to reinterpret her three favorite pieces from our collection: the Esther shirt, which she paired with the Erica shorts in a superb Italian poplin with white and green stripes; as well as the Kate dress in a sage stripe with vintage accents that we loved! Three pieces that reflect her everyday style: effortless and feminine.
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?
I love that SESSEI shares the same values as me when it comes to clothing. We're both in the same process of building a wardrobe of everyday essentials. Beyond doing it for myself, this is what I try to replicate in the content I share with my followers.
What place do you give to eco-responsibility in your way of consuming today?
Eco-responsibility is a big part of my daily life, and it's an ethic I try to communicate through my content creation. I always focus on the style of the products and how the consumer can truly get the most out of a piece, rather than constantly sharing new products. My style is also quite classic, which I think works very well with SESSEI pieces and their inherently timeless nature.
Why did you choose the Erica shorts, the Esther shirt and the Kate dress as the starting point for your design?
The SESEI shorts and shirt set was a staple in my wardrobe last summer, so I really wanted to create a version that felt personal. Not only is this set very easy to combine, but it also offers great versatility in the wardrobe, which is exactly what I wanted. The shirt goes very well with different skirts, trousers, and jeans, and I love pairing shorts with blazers to give them a more elegant touch. Likewise, a shirt dress always has a place in my spring/summer wardrobe. It's a universal piece that can be worn by anyone, at any age, and it's a wardrobe classic, so naturally, I wanted to create my own version with SESSEI.
What motivated the choice of these particular cotton poplins?
Cotton poplin is one of my favorite fabrics! It's comfortable and breathable, yet stylish. I especially love the striped shades we chose for this garment and think they're flattering on all skin tones. They're also a nice change from the traditional blue stripes, making them more unique!
After several weeks of waiting, how did you feel when you finally discovered the pieces we had imagined?
In one word, how would you describe this capsule?
I would describe this capsule collection as 'timeless' - it's a word I often use to reflect my style and I think the pieces are truly classic and universal.
