RESORT 2O18 ODYSSEY i
ii 1
Nostos is a Greek literary theme where the narrative centres around the physical and spiritual return to home after an epic journey. No other story embodies this concept like The Odyssey, written by Homer in the 8th century BC. The poem is about the legendary King Odysseus and his 10-year expedition across the seas back to his native Ithaca, following the Trojan War which he had fought and won. Along the way, the eponymous hero is confronted by natural and supernatural threats in order to test his bravery and wit before he is reunited with his family. Following the footsteps of Odysseus adventures, this resort 2018 collection by Zeus+Δione goes on an epic voyage around the Aegean. The overall look is thoughtfully dramatic, much in the way of the story that inspired it. Evoking the impression of Odysseus sails, the light and pillowy silhouette is emphasised through generous cut, gatherings and pleating, whilst wide sleeves, asymmetrical hems and geometric bold panels act like windcatchers. Decorative details such as embroidery from the Peloponnese Argos, hand-made silver buttons in the shape of nautical knots and hand-made trims woven on traditional looms in Athens and Crete, celebrate Greek craft, transporting each garment onto an Odyssean expedition of know-how. Tones of navy, sand and sea blue, alongside richer golds and cherry reds, colour the collection that also features prints inspired by the decorative houses of Pyrgi, and fine cotton hand-made crochet knitted in the village of Parnassus alongside the Zeus+Δione signature spathoto silk. 2 3
