Fire & Return: The Spirit of Vaval SS27
Collection Brewing Slowly…
Fire and Return: The Spirit of Vaval is a celebration of Caribbean carnival as an enduring expression of resilience, identity, and liberation.
Inspired by the traditions of the French West Indies, where Vaval is burned to mark the end of carnival and the release of what can no longer follow us into the next chapter, this collection explores transformation through dress. Rooted in heritage yet unapologetically present, it carries the passion of fire, the grounding of ancestral memory, the movement of voice and expression, and the emotional weight of stories carried through generations.
More than a seasonal celebration, carnival lives within our everyday lives in the ways we express ourselves, reclaim our agency, and move through the world with confidence and authenticity.
Fire and Return is an invitation to release shame, honour where you come from, and step forward with courage into who you are becoming. You do not need to be of Caribbean heritage to resonate with this collection. You simply need the courage to be.
This is not a traditional seasonal collection, but an evolving body of work. Just as carnival continues to transform through time, new pieces will be released gradually. I invite you to receive the garments you feel drawn towards.

Our garments are created with ancestral care, cultural intention and a spirit-led approach.
Each piece carries its own story, woven through fabric, design and construction. We create beyond trends drawing from heritage, memory, identity and lived experience to create pieces with meaning.
While Jade Chrysanthe Atelier expresses these ideas through fashion, The Misted Veil is the wider creative and spiritual world where our art, writing, symbolism, workshops and intuitive offerings live.
You don’t have to connect with spirituality to connect with our work. You may simply be drawn to the beauty, creativity and craftsmanship and that is more than welcome.

The present and future generations cannot exist with the past… We invite the white madras made in house from our previous collection Karukera SS23 into this simple A line silhouette skirt, as a reminder of the past shaping what is now. The basket weave is applied using a blue denim creating the effect across the sides of the skirt.
The basket weave structure is a reflection of the basket weaving in the Caribbean islands, that were used with leaves and branches to make roof for homes, baskets and more. It is a skill that is expressed across all the islands and was a technique embodied by the indigenous and african population. For this collection, it reflects how interconnected we all are and how many cultures came together to create the one we value.
The Jupe has one open side with denim loops and a denim tie not for adjusting.
