“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.”– Annie Dillard Are you willing to spend a little time every day like most people won’t, so you can spend the better part of your life like most people can’t?

This season, Hessel Cohen offered a wide-ranging collection that spans, as she suggested, “Thanksgiving in the British countryside,” to a night out at the Nutcracker, and even “mermaid aquatic dream girl.”Above all, nostalgia was the name of the game for Hessel Cohen, who looked back on her own fond childhood memories of watching her mother get ready for a night out.
