From Italy With Love…
Added 2023-10-31 17:51:12 +0000 UTCOk Friends, it’s story time.
Last year I received an IG message from an Italian Designer named Vittoria Bonini saying she loved the music I was creating and wondered if I would be interested in working together. I was very excited about this prospect, but after taking a look at her Instagram I noticed how busy she was with fashion shows and travel, so I held the possibility pretty lightly.
We stayed in touch and I enjoyed corresponding with her and her musician partner Demetrio and getting glimpses into the beautiful projects they were creating together. They are a very fun and warm hearted creative couple and I felt like I’d made two new friends.
A few weeks ago, they wrote me a message to say they were sending a surprise. I was very excited, but nothing in my wildest dreams could have prepared me for what arrived from Italy late last night.
The video above shows a one of a kind handmade dress from Vittoria, and I died of delight when I pulled it out of the box! If I was a dress… this is exactly the dress I would want to be. It captures the essence of medieval dreams and timeless haunting music in a way that I didn’t even know was possible for a dress to do!
It’s a true piece of art, and such an extraordinary gift. I’m already starting to dream up some music video ideas for the new album!
I wanted y’all to see it first, especially since you’ve heard the songs for the new album… any votes for which song this dress would go best with? I’m leaning towards Butterflies in My Mind, but Come Away might also be perfect.
P.S… the only reason I’m not smiling in this video is because I am still genuinely shocked at the beauty of this dress.

You and this dress were made for one another, Eva! I'm sure you appreciate both the tangible and intangible behind all this. I look forward to see what your collaborations lead to!
