Art de Huile Made London Debut with “7 Hills, 7 Heals”
The evening marked the London launch of Art de Huile, positioning the brand at the intersection of fashion, wellness, and technology. Central to the showcase was the 7 Hills, 7 Heals – Istanbul Aromatherapy Essence Scarf, an accessory that combines couture design with advanced nanotechnology.
Each scarf draws inspiration from the seven hills of Istanbul, embedding layers of the city’s history and culture not only in colour and design but also in fragrance. Treated with natural essential oils, the fabric subtly releases scent as it moves and touches the skin. Aromatherapy essence scarf are ore than an accessory, the 7 Hills, 7 Heals scarves are a tribute to Istanbul and a statement of the future: where fashion, wellness, and innovation meet in perfect harmony.
A Sensory Innovation in Fashion
The scarves are infused with aromas reminiscent of Istanbul from the blossoms of the Judas tree in spring to the crisp breeze of the Bosphorus. The result is a multi-sensory experience, transforming the scarf into more than an accessory: it becomes a bridge between memory, emotion, and style.
By blending traditional craftsmanship with modern wellness innovation, the collection positions itself as both a tribute to Istanbul and a vision of the future of fashion.
