Muse Moments

Exclusively in the closets of @nicolabathiemclaughlin and @eleanorleftwich

Every day, we witness beauty in different shapes and forms, from the majesty of Mother Earth to the people who empower us to make a positive impact. At Dora Maar, the Muse guides us towards authentic self-expression with one-of-a-kind pieces of fashion history that help us tell our own stories. Uniquely suspended between your own individuality and the powerful influence of inspiring forces around you, that is where you find your Muse moment.

What is it about Markarian that inspires the way you dress?

Markarian embraces traditional elegance with unique dress shapes that still feel current. One-of-a-kind yet timeless, I'm always grabbing their silhouettes for every kind of occasion.  

Have you had any special moments wearing Markarian?

I wore one of their gowns to a wedding in Paris. The ruffles, the train and the fabric took me back in time and it was a perfect match.

No one does beadwork like Markarian. It’s understated yet so intricately crafted that their dresses sparkle from every angle. I plan to wear a beautiful peplum floral jacket for an event later this spring.

Markarian's modern twist on classically feminine silhouettes makes every moment in them extraordinary. I'll wear them to galas and the like and still feel just as special when I'm wearing them for a casual dinner date with my husband.
