Nic Joly
Never shying away from facing life’s truths head on, Nic Joly recently brought us two new collections intended to provoke introspection, by challenging us to embrace our inner most thoughts and feelings, and recognise objectively how we navigate life's twists and turns. Nic’s autumn releases featured ‘Honesty’, a sincere look at one outcome of the recent pandemic and how it affected our collective mental health, stating: “People have really started to talk about their mental health; the stigma attached to mental health is finally fading. We are all fragile and now it is time to embrace that fact and talk honestly about it.”. In turn, ‘Out, Out’ encourages a more reaching view of what is yet to come. Nic explains the reaction he would like this work to promote: “Look to the next year with hope, happiness, positivity and a love of life... Smile, look to the good times and celebrate life.”. Fast forward to this spring, and we see Nic examining the meaning of love; not the love portrayed in stories, books and films but deep, true, sincere love between friends, family or partners. His lesson to us here, through ‘You Just Are’ and ‘Honest Love’, is that openness and communication are the cornerstones of growing and nurturing love, which is the most precious of all commodities.
