SQIMAGO #fla2605 — It is a matter of Growth.

SQIMAGO #fla2605 — It is a matter of Growth.

Everything grows.

It doesn’t matter whether fast or slow,
whether straight or winding.

There is only time passing
and the care that nourishes.
Sometimes it is enough to pause,
to look,
to listen,
to wait.

Other times one must feed,
support,
repair,
sacrifice,
change course and begin again.

And then one must believe,
even without seeing the actual shape,
without understanding its secret.

Because then it will happen — perhaps —
and today it has happened.

May,
the month of beauty.

Today, time,
care,
effort,
and trust
have a form,
take color — in fact, three.

They find expression
in a collection of small accessories
that marks a unique moment in fashion history:

for the first time, today, a biofabricated material becomes the central protagonist of a global high-fashion launch.

Not just any material.
Ephea Uma.

This month’s SQIMAGO is dedicated to those who,
over these years, have taken part in this project.

This is the fruit of interwoven seasons,
of hands,
minds,
spirits,
hearts.
Of a shared vision.

As always,
it is a matter of growth.

And as Ephea grows
— literally, biologically —
so do we.

And today, we admire what has grown in silence taking shape —
concrete, shared, alive — and resembling us all.

Thank you.
