AND THERE’S

SOMETHING HERE

THAT TECHNIQUE

ALONE CAN’T EXPLAIN.

IT’S THE SPACE

BETWEEN ONE

SHADOW AND THE

NEXT THAT PULSES -

the absent red that still makes itself felt—the choice of black and white that

doesn’t fade but deepens. This Chanel, seen through Amanda’s soul, doesn’t

aim to dazzle. She aims to unsettle. Her steady gaze cuts through us slowly,

without pretense, like someone who fully understands what it means to leave

a mark that time cannot erase.

Inspired by a quote Chanel once said—“Style is a signature that transcends

time”—Amanda leaves her own signature here. And she does so with the

reverence of someone who knows how to listen to the raw material from

which memory is made. Her realism is sensitive, almost tactile. But its greatest

power lies in what remains unseen: the subtext, the atmosphere, the soul.

This work marks the beginning of a new series dedicated to fashion legends.

But Amanda doesn’t get lost in the glitter. She distills. And in distilling, she

refines. Chanel, Dior, Lagerfeld—they’ll come. But each one will be reinvented

through the lens of an artist who never copies—she interprets.
