evermore-fashion:Demeter (Δημήτηρ) was the goddess of the harvest, fertility, agriculture, nourishment, growth, nature and the seasons in Greek mythology. Endowed with the power to bring feast and famine to the world, she was said to have the ability to control the seasons and transform the face of nature. In fact her powers were able to influence Zeus (king of the gods) into making Hades (god of the dead) bring her daughter Persephone up from the underworld. She had been playing with some Nymphs, whom Demeter later changed into the Sirens as punishment for not having interfered, and the ground split and she was kidnapped by Hades. Life came to a standstill as the depressed Demeter searched for her lost daughter with the aid of Hecate (goddess of magic). Finally, Zeus could not put up with the dying earth and forced Hades to return Persephone by sending Hermes (messenger of the gods) to retrieve her. But before she was released, Hades tricked her into eating six pomegranate seeds, which forced her to return for six months each year. When Demeter and her daughter were together, the earth flourished with vegetation. But for six months each year, when Persephone returned to the underworld, the earth once again became a barren realm.(Marchesa Spring 2020 Ready-to-Wear Collection) -- source link
