"I love working with the MÄVINN collections since all the creating occurs in collaboration with skilled social businesses. This year's theme is table settings, which sparked the idea of integrating something edible – and figs felt like a perfect choice. The caterpillar acts as a small mascot and becomes different striped patterns in the design. I love how the organic materials harmonise with the bold colours and hope you will appreciate the craftsmanship behind each piece."
