Since the late Renaissance, the grand tour or rather cavalier tour had been an educational trip to the culturally significant sites preferably in France, Italy and Spain, provided for young European noblemen as well as gentlemen, in order to form personality and character. The Rome fashion designer Stella Jean followed a route, which resembled the grand tour, along the own wardrobe. However, her path led to some of the richest and most impressive countries in the southern hemisphere. So she visited Africa, Central America and Polynesia, where she not only got inebriated of the local cultures and traditions, but also collected inspiring stories and images.
