"If you look the right way you can see the whole world is a garden."
-Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
Reem Acra, ready to wear SS2017, is inspired by the The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett. As one of my favorite books from when I was a little girl, it is filled with poetic symbolism, useful life lessons, and love.
When we think of secrets, we often imagine a heavy, negative, flow of darkness. However the secrets of the garden, are filled with blooms of hope, miracles, and light.
Enjoy the collection of Reem Acra side by side with the words of Frances Hodgson Burnett!
"When you tend a rose my lad, a thistle cannot grow."
-Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
"Thoughts- just mere thoughts - are as powerful as electric batteries - as good for one as sunlight is, or as bad as for one as poison. "
-Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
"And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed and every morning revealed new miracles."
-Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
"Then sometimes the immense quiet of the dark blue at night with the millions of stars waiting and watching makes one sure; and sometimes a sound of far-off music makes it true; and sometimes a look inside someone's eyes."
-Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
