Vaig crear la meva col·lecció Ofelia el 2009 inspirada en el personatge d’Ofelia de Hamlet de William Shakespeare.
És l'enamorada del príncep danès Hamlet, germana de Laertes i filla del lord camarlenc Poloni, home de confiança del rei de Dinamarca.
Es considera un mite o arquetip i se la sol associar amb flors al seu voltant i als seus cabells no recollits, un vestit ric i sovint blanc, la natura, la nit o la lluna. Se la sol representar just abans de morir, amb flors al salze o cantant, o bé ja morta, però de manera que sembla adormida.
Hi ha moltes simbologies i significats de les flors, però William Shakespeare a Hamlet va utilitzar unes flors específiques per descriure les emocions i els sentiments d'Ofelia.
Utilitzava el Romaní per al record, els Pensaments pels pensaments d’amor, el Fonoll per a l’adulació, els Corniols per a la fidelitat al casament, la Ruda vera per al menyspreu i el penediment, la Rosa salvatge per la primavera, i la Violeta per la fidelitat.
El Salze plorós que s’inclina sobre Ofelia és un símbol d’amor abandonat. Les Ortigues que creixen al voltant de les branques del salze representen dolor. I les Margarides flotant prop de la mà dreta d’Ofelia representen la innocència.

I created my Ophelia collection on 2009 inspired by the character Ophelia from Hamlet by William Shakespeare.
Ophelia is a young noblewoman of Denmark, the daughter of Polonius, sister of Laertes, and potential wife of Prince Hamlet.
She’s considered a myth or archetype and usually associated with flowers around her and her unrecovered hair, a rich and often white dress, nature, night or moon. She’s usually represented just before dying, with flowers in willow or singing, or already dead, but seeming to be asleep.
There’re lots of symbology and meanings about flowers but William Shakespeare in Hamlet used a specific flowers to describe Ophelia’s emotions and feelings.
He used Rosemary for remembrance, Pansies for thoughts of love, Fennel for flattery, Columbines for faithfulness in wedlock, Rue for disdain and repentance, the Canker Rose for spring, Violet for faithfulness.
The weeping willow tree leaning over Ophelia is a symbol of forsaken love. The nettles that are growing around the willow's branches represent pain. The daisies floating near Ophelia's right hand represent innocence.

Lilium (members of which are true lilies) is a genus of herbaceous flowering plants growing from bulbs, all with large prominent flowers.
If there's one flower that’s bursting with symbolism, it's the lily. Amiability, purity, love, fertility, femininity, unity and transience; it represents all of them.
The shape, the variety of colours, and the sweet scent in particular make the lily the ideal symbol of femininity. That meaning dates back many centuries to ancient Egypt. Greek and Roman brides were often given a crown of lilies in the hope of a pure and fruitful life.
Lilies are known to be the May birth flower, and the 30th wedding anniversary flower. They’re also the flowers most often associated with funerals, they symbolise that the soul of the departed has received restored innocence after death.
