A.B. ELLIE’s Earrings styled with Ouma’s Wedding Dresses in their 024 Collection ‘Traversal’.
Traversal’s technical meaning is to travel across, to explore—the act of going from one place to another. For OUMA’s founder, Ou Ma, it transcends this definition. It's a sliver of time spent with her grandfather, Huanzhou. It encapsulates her memories of his artistry and painting. It's a vision of her past and a reminder of all she’s accomplished. Ou’s latest collection, Traversal, stands as a testament to these memories and a heartfelt homage to Huanzhou.
Rooted in Asian culture yet imbued with a modern edge, Ou utilizes structured silhouettes and draping fabrics to echo her history and passion. Thick Mikado, silk crepes, and frothy textures come together in a way that feels both luxurious and feminine.
The A.B. ELLIE accessories, carefully styled for this shoot, seamlessly meld with each look— serving as silent companions, they gracefully amplify Ou’s vision without overshadowing her narrative.
