Mysterium Conjunctionis explores Margot Lévêque's obsession with the collar

Mysterium Conjunctionis is a publication by French designer Margot Lévêque that explores the relationship between the body and the collars of clothing. Margot states that: “Since I’m a child, I’m obsessed with collars of clothing. It could mean a lot of things about an individual’s identity. During my research, I also did a focus on the neck, where collars of clothing arise. The neck represents life: we breathe, we eat, we shout, we lose our voice, we suffocate… The neck is the biggest lodge of emotions. I chose a selection of collars that I like most and for each collar, I linked them with an emotion.” The book never contains the word ‘collar’, and instead replaces it 396 times with the infinity symbol (∞), because aesthetically, it looks like a collar template used in the fashion industry.
