The Magical Glow of ANGKORIAN AETHER
In 2004, my good friend Jing Ramos and I flew to Siem Reap,
Cambodia to see the temples. We stayed at a private home owned by a couple of
educators and moved to Grand Hotel d’Angkor on our last day.
There, we saw
portraits of the hotel’s
famous guests: Somerset Maugham, Charlie Chaplin, so on and so forth… Transfixing us however, were
images of Lee Radziwill and Jackie O. Thus on our last day, we traveled to
BANTEAY SREI, the Temple for Women, and took on the roles of the two sisters.
My recent holiday collection for FashionWatch called ANGKORIAN AETHER is colored by our adventures, and
misadventures in that holy land of Devatas and Apsaras…
