LIKE A VIRGIN
LIKE A VIRGIN
The pearl was never the treasure. You were.
LIKE A VIRGIN explores the stories, expectations, and myths that have long surrounded femininity, innocence, and purity.
Rather than addressing virginity as a biological reality, the piece examines it as a cultural narrative: a collection of meanings, projections, and values that societies have historically placed upon women's bodies.
LIKE A VIRGIN also invites a compassionate reflection on the stories many of us carry from our earliest experiences of desire, intimacy, and self-discovery. It honors the vulnerability of becoming, the uncertainty of youth, and the process of learning to inhabit one's own body on one's own terms.
A tribute to the part of ourselves that was learning.
Learning desire.
Learning boundaries.
Learning freedom.
Soft tones and delicate lines create an atmosphere that is both playful and contemplative. A pearl detail appears as a symbolic element throughout the design, representing the notions of innocence, value, and preciousness that are often projected onto women. Here, the pearl becomes a reminder that worth does not come from an external ideal, but already exists within.
As with several pieces in the WOMB Collection, a visible red cotton gusset celebrates what is often hidden: the menstrual cycle, vitality, lived experience, and the reality of the female body. It offers a counterpoint to idealized narratives, grounding the piece in something authentic, human, and alive.
Tender, ironic, and quietly provocative, LIKE A VIRGIN invites a reconsideration of the stories we inherit and the meanings we choose to keep.
Part of the WOMB Collection, this piece explores feminine value, self-definition, and the freedom to reclaim one's own narrative.
