A symphony of colours: in a stunningly visually appealing collection, Danish designer Ilse Jacobsen displays her unusual approach to colours. To me, the tangled and intertwined colours of the fabrics resemble Batik as well as a blurry sea of flowers simultaneously. Perhaps you see something else entirely in the colourful...
