Beauty does not end at death.
It watches.
The Vigil of Marigolds socks bear the face of La Catrina, framed by roses, copper hair, and ceremonial markings. A reminder that remembrance is not passive, it is active. The dead are not gone. They are observed, honored, carried forward.
The design feels celebratory at first glance. On second look, it becomes something else entirely.
A ritual in color. A face that does not blink.
These socks are not playful.
They are reverent.

The Story: “The Vigil of Marigolds”
They were worn each year on the same night.
No invitations were sent. No names were spoken aloud. But the candles were always lit, and the marigolds were always fresh. Those who attended said the woman hosting never dressed in black. Only color. Only life.
When asked why, she answered:
“Grief fades. Memory must not.”
After her passing, the house was emptied. The candles gone. The flowers removed.
Only these socks remained, folded neatly beside a small mirror.
On the mirror, written in ash:
“To be remembered,
one must first remember.”
