About Me
I've developed a soft spot for recycled textiles, finding immense satisfaction in giving them a new life, especially in a world inundated with fast fashion. Taking the time to mend or enhance a piece of clothing goes beyond appearances—it's a small yet impactful gesture towards caring for our planet. If you're drawn to fashion that's history-inspired, eco-conscious, and effortlessly stylish, let's embark on this exciting journey together!
Design Process
The beauty of fashion design, for me, lies in the process. From the sheer joy of sketching out ideas and exploring possibilities to the intricate dance of figuring out how they'll seamlessly come together in pattern making. The excitement reaches its peak when I finally get to cut and construct each piece, bringing my vision to life. It's not just about the garments; it's about the journey, the creative puzzle that unfolds with every sketch, pattern, and stitch.
Always the Fashion Student
I am pursuing my B.F.A. in Fashion Design and Product Development at Stephens College. Unlike the typical college journey, I've embarked on this adventure later in life, after spending over a decade and a half teaching myself the art of altering and mending clothing to designing and selling new designs..Now, I'm channeling that passion into formal education, expanding my skills in garment construction and design techniques. Join me on this exciting ride as I blend years of hands-on experience with fresh knowledge, turning my love for creating and selling new designs into a lifelong pursuit.
