Voyages en récitsBénédicte Delvolvé : Les ateliers illuminescenceRayonner au lieu de briller, voilà la ligne de conduite des Ateliers Illuminessence. Les vêtements sont une une véritable porte d'entrée vers la connaissance de soi. Il ne s’agit pas de se « composer » un personnage mais bien au contraire d’ajuster l’extérieur à ce que nous sommes profondément. Nous avons été créés avec une beauté unique et c’est honorer ceux qui nous entourent et nous-mêmes de nous vêtir en nous respectant le plus possible. https://www.benedictedelvolve.com/Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Zélie - Le Podcast // Femmes inspiréesÉpisode 21. Bénédicte Delvolvé : "Chaque personne est belle"Qui suis-je ? En quoi suis-je unique ? Quelle présence puis-je apporter au monde ? De ces questions fondamentales, notre corps parle et apporte des réponses : par la lumière dont notre peau rayonne, par l’architecture de notre corps et par les matières de vêtements qui nous accompagnent le mieux.
