Shout outs to DJ, Producer and Vancouverite, Yu Su for the meet and greet. Noelle dipped her out proper in the current season's flavor and you know SPITGAN knows our way around a camera. Yu Su's music has travelled her near and far with sets at Dekmantel, tours of China etc. We've shared a live set of hers for Boiler Room in Oz deeper in this post to get you familiar with the vibes if not in tune already...
Hi! I am the Founder/Scent Creator of ESSCENTRIC, a holistic aromatherapist, a reiki practitioner, a Bach flower remedies registered practitioner, and a barre instructor. None of these identities were mapped out in my life plan 5 years ago, until I start my own brand, but coincidentally they are all products of my passion, intuition, and eccentricity. It's an embodiment of grace and spiritual awakening in myself. A living proof of the well-being and healing powers of my eclectic scents.
Despite how international media has been portraying the Chinese government on their handling of the situation, this is one of the few times I would say I am actually happy to be living in China. I know many people are going to have their own opinion of how information gets released out in this part of the world, and to be honest there are certain things that do not sit well with me, but that is not what we are here to talk about. I think that the Chinese government has done a tremendous job in getting the country where it currently stands today, with regards to slowing down the spread of the virus.
I remember we started talking about Corona Virus during Paris Fashion Week, end of February. The virus arrived in Milano, Italy, just one week earlier when all the ‘fash pack’ was there, so there was a risk that the virus would travel to Paris from Milano… We were working on some fashion shows, filming backstages and runways, and I remember that people where hesitating to take the threat seriously or not…. Fashion likes lightness and no one wanted to spoil the party…
Where are we going next? Athens, Greece to check in with accessories designer, Eleanna Katsira. She does some great work with leather and laser cutting. The first and last time we saw her was in Paris, at the Ozone Showroom. Since, we have kept up on her growth through social media, but with the global pandemic of Covid-19, we felt it was high time to check back in and see how Eleanna has been getting by.
