Every symbol in the Couture catalogue, mapped to meaning and to garment.
Six symbols carry the Couture body of work: the Lion of Judah, the Hamsa, the Star of David, the Phoenix, the Horse, and the abstract Hebrew letterform. Each symbol has its own meaning, its own moments of appropriate use, and its own placement across the garment categories. This page is the index that ties them together.
