After the year we’ve all had, the desire to snuggle under the sheets and turn away from the existential crises present in the news cycle is especially strong right now. Similar thoughts appear to have been on the minds of Michael Harding and Levi Palmer, whose Pre-Fall collection takes inspiration from the safety, security and comfort that comes with wrapping yourself in high threadcount curtains and shutting out the big bad world. Comes from. – Emotions that are heightened when being with a new partner, as was the case with Harding recently. “We’re in an open relationship and I’m dating this guy and really experiencing the energy of a new romance when you’re cuddled up in bed, trapped in this protective bubble,” he says.
