For his most ambitious show yet, British designer Hector Maclean unveils a cinematic dreamworld titled ‘The Girl Who Ate the Dragon’. Blending history and imagination, the collection uses myth as a lens for transformation, drawing on figures like Saint George and Joan of Arc to explore courage, conflict, and transcendence. Treasure-rich folklore and imagined crystal palaces become visual and symbolic anchors, merging narrative and fantasy to evoke opulence and inner alchemy. At its core, the story celebrates female power and metamorphosis: a woman not taming the dragon, but becoming it. This is a world of mysticism, rebellion, and radical beauty, where femininity burns bright, untamed and unstoppable.
