To PAUSE is to take a moment to reflect, to fully immerse in the sensory world — feeling the rhythm of sound, the movement of hands, and the depth of what the eyes capture. In harmony with these ideas is an innovative collaboration between PAUSE and Vitaly, a collection that honours the vibrant tapestry of the fashion community, inspired by the dynamic streets of London, Paris, New York, and beyond.
This collection transcends beyond its aesthetics; it’s a profound exploration of deeper connection and expression. Drawing inspiration from the sensory elements that shape our experiences, from the people we meet, to the ones we document or continue to champion through our output, we have infused the designs with motifs reflecting the eyes, hands, and ears — symbols of perception and interaction.
Each piece carries a name that resonates deeply: the Ear Cuff titled Connect signifies the bonds forged within our fashion communities, while the Chain, named Coterie, represents the collective spirit that unites us. The Ring, called Capture, embodies the essence of seizing moments of inspiration and creativity through fashion.
In an exclusive quote, Johnson Gold (Founder and editor-in-chief of PAUSE) explained: “An integral piece at PAUSE, since the very beginning, has been capturing street style. This collection pays homage to those who fuel our creativity, portraying the diverse style of everyone from London to Paris to New York. Titled Connect, Coterie, Capture, each design represents the fashion community that we celebrate every year.”
The “Connect, Coterie, Capture” collection will be available in both gold and silver, providing options that resonate with every individual’s style. Each piece serves as a reminder that fashion is not just about what we wear but rather the connections we forge and the vessels of our existence that allow us to experience life, navigate our identities, and engage with one another within our communities.
Discover the collection and be part of a narrative that celebrates the very essence of street style.
