In the whispering gardens of Schönbrunn, Paula Kautschitz moves like a secret. Wrapped in Austrian elegance and international couture, her steps echo the past, where Habsburg courts spoke in silk and lace.
Beneath long skirts and delicate threads, her grace emerges—silent yet strong—her femininity hidden in the soft sway of her body, revealed only in the eloquence of her gaze.
LOST IN IMPERIAL GARDENS BY ELISABETH LECHNER
“The editorial Lost In Imperial Gardens features Paula Kautschitz wearing a blend of Austrian and International RTW and Prèt-à-Couture brands gliding through the imperial gardens of the Schönbrunn Palace.
In reference to the Spanish court ceremonial, kept in place during the Habsburg rule of the Austrian Hungarian Empire, the styling features covered legs, through long skirts, tights, or delicate lacing, girding Paula to exude her strength and femininity discreetly through her facial features and movements of her body.”
