THE LEGEND OF THE PINK SHEEP
For the Autumn-Winter 2024/2025 season, Marie Martens takes you into the world of "The Legend of the Pink Sheep. A magical world created with the help ofartificial intelligence.
"The starting point for my new Fall/Winter 2024 collection was sheepskin, chosen for its softness and warmth. (As a fun fact: my hairstyle is often compared to that of a sheep!)
I selected a textile resembling woolen skin, which inspired an entire imaginary world centered around an extraordinary sheep with a colourful dream.
Creating my moodboard around this theme revealed an enchanting universe that influenced the colors and mood of the collection.
Fascinated by this dreamlike world, I crafted a tale around our main character with the help of artificial intelligence.
Thus, "The Legend of the Pink Sheep" was born—a magical story that blends my creativity with AI.
I invite you to read the tale below and discover the new collection."

The legend of the Pink Sheep
"Once upon a time, in a lush green valley, there lived a sheep named Marie. Unlike the other sheep, Marie dreamed of something different—she wanted pink wool. The other sheep wondered why anyone would want to stand out. And why pink? Marie chose pink because it reflected her vibrant personality, symbolizing love, optimism, and positivity. Marie knew that being different was something to embrace, not hide. She looked at the flowers in the meadow, each unique in colour and shape, and thought, "I would like to stand out from the herd."
One day, Marie heard of a special rosebush with magical petals that could change the colour of wool. With determination in her heart, she decided to visit the rosebush. "What if it doesn't work?" the other sheep asked. But Marie was willing to take the risk. She dared to be different, and that meant trying something new—something she had never dared to do before.
When Marie the sheep reached the glowing pink rosebush, she gently brushed against it, causing the shimmering pink petals to fall and settle onto her wool. Immediately, her fleece transformed into a stunning shade of pink. Overjoyed, she admired her reflection, feeling more confident than ever.
Proud of her pink wool, she returned to the valley. The other sheep were astonished. They had never seen such a beautiful sheep: a pink sheep. Inspired by Marie’s courage, many of them wanted to join the #PinkClub and searched for their own pink touch.
And so, Marie became a symbol of courage and self-confidence, showing everyone that it's wonderful to dare to be different. From that day on, the valley was not just filled with ordinary sheep but with a vibrant flock of pink sheep celebrating boldness and confidence.
And they all lived happinkly ever after.
The end. "
