Afterlight explores the space between moments.
Defined by contrast – softness and structure, shadow and sheen – the collection balances minimal silhouettes with textured finishes and depth of tone. Grounded yet expressive, Afterlight is designed for the modern woman who dresses with presence and ease.

AUTUMN 26 | AFTERLIGHT
The palette draws from city light after dark.
Muted tones move through deep reds, softened purples, and faded yellow notes, anchored by smoke, tarnish, and midnight hues. Tonal layering and tactile finishes add dimension, allowing each look to unfold with movement and ease.
For Resort 2024, the design team took it back to the origins of fashion creation, evoking a sense of nostalgia for the craft of dressmaking. The collection is an exploration of texture, opacity, silhouette and layering.
“With every aspect of the collection, we wanted the wearer to feel the craftsmanship and element of hand put into the pieces”
- Founder, Merryn Kelly
"Afterlight is about the space between moments – where contrast creates depth. I was drawn to the tension between softness and structure, light and shadow, and how those opposing elements can coexist with ease. This collection reflects a quieter kind of confidence, designed for women who dress with intention and move through the world with presence."
