Emilia Wickstead and Paperless Post have teamed up to revive the lost art of personal connection in a world dominated by technology. Their latest collaboration features a stunning collection of digital invitations, liners, and backdrops infused with Wickstead’s elegant and modern feminine touch. The launch event took place at the charming French bistro, Le Veau d’Or in New York City.
Guests were transported into a whimsical world as they stepped through the unmarked door of the venue. The intimate space was adorned with delicate prints and vibrant floral motifs, paying homage to the beauty of traditional stationery. Emilia Wickstead shared her lifelong passion for stationery, expressing her love for the tangible experience of sending and receiving handwritten notes. She emphasized the irreplaceable charm of a paper invitation over a simple text message.
To bring this vision to life, Gatherings by Emily collaborated with Emilia Wickstead and Paperless Post to create a magical evening filled with tactile romance. The table linens were intricately designed to mirror the patterns of the collection, while each guest was greeted with a bespoke envelope serving as a personalized place card. Notable attendees included Trew Mullen, Sarah Hoover, Sabine Getty, Derek Blasberg, Angelica Hicks, Leandra Medine, and Tina Leung, all adding to the familial atmosphere of the event.
The collaboration between Emilia Wickstead and Paperless Post celebrates the beauty of human connection and the importance of meaningful interactions in a digital age. By combining Wickstead’s timeless elegance with Paperless Post’s innovative technology, they have successfully brought back the magic of traditional stationery in a modern and sophisticated way. This partnership serves as a reminder that amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life, taking the time to connect with others in a meaningful way is truly invaluable.
