Photography transforms inner visions into images that hover between reality and reverie.
When I was 17 and leaving India to go to college in the United States, I packed two suitcases with DKNY sweaters, blue jeans, and a Michael Kors backpack with gold buckles-everything I imagined would allow me to fit right in. Some 20 years later, I packed considerably more suitcases and cartons to move from India to London, to take up a promotion at work.
One of TikTok's "core" offspring, the ultra-romantic aesthetic of eyelets, lace, and floral prints galore, got its name from the image it evokes. Picture it: slow afternoons traipsing across grassy fields, plucking flowers in a basket, and sipping tea from floral-lined cups in your grandma's cottage. And no one does the aesthetic better than Hosk. Thankfully, Hosk made it easy for cottagecore-curious savants to try the trend.
