How Fruits inspire our designs at Marasim

Growing up in India, the advent of the festival of Holi, around the corner from the holy month of Ramzan, always filled the spirit with the energy of the changing weather- the sweet warmth of the arrival of spring. During the celebration of all these spring festivals and all the other rituals in India, I always noticed that the fresh fruits held deep cultural significance- as they symbolize nature’s abundance. This belief, shared by many cultures worldwide, is reflected in the rich presence of fruits in art and design globally and in how they have continued to inspire creativity on the runway.

As couture week unfolds in Paris, it is inspiring to see iconic looks developed through the play of novelty trims. Trims were initially born out of a practical necessity to keep the fabric intact by not unraveling. Trims have transformed from simple, functional elements to works of intricate beauty. It’s remarkable how something so seemingly mundane can capture the beauty of human creativity.

Join us as we explore how these decorative details have evolved from simple necessity to standout novelties, from elaborate collars to ornamental embellishments to chest pieces. Subscribe to our Jan newsletter on Novelty trims out of tomorrow. Link in bio to subscribe.

The winter holiday season is steeped in nostalgia, evoking memories of familiar sights, smells, and sounds. The home glows with festive lights and carefully chosen trims, setting the tone for the season.

Join our Dec Newsletter, as we explore the fascinating world of French passementeries—both antique and new—and uncover the histories and memories they carry within.

Often a made from braided cords, beads, or intricate fabric details, passementeries encompass much more than embellishments—they’re loaded with history and cultural significance.

One gem in our archive is a rare vintage passementeries book filled with intricate trims once owned by a French artisan. In our newsletter coming out tomorrow, we invite you to connect with us for an exclusive, in-person glimpse.

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year.
