Fashion is my Passion

What is fashion to me?

I view fashion as art, creativity, and expression. Fashion is constantly evolving and it is interesting to me to see how trends change over time, and even how past styles come back around. The passion to design and create was in me since I was a child, and I will continue to live my dream in this amazing city where there is so much to gain inspiration from!

Fashion excites me because I love to translate my inspirations into actual creations for other people to wear and love! I am inspired by my surroundings and the people I meet. I look to street art, archetecture, music, culture, and other random things for inspiration. I recycle old clothing from thrift stores and clothes that I no longer wear by cutting them apart, combining other fabrics and prints, then sew the pieces to create a new design. Sometimes I sketch several ideas before working on a garment, while other times I am more experimental by randomly cutting, pinning, and sewing. I would describe my design style as urban, geometric,
edgy, asymmetric, and wearable.


I love connecting with musicians and artists, and I hope to design specifically for them. I want people to feel awesome wearing my designs: confident, unique, edgy, beautiful, and comfortable in the clothing I create. I also want people to understand my inspiration behind the design because I believe there is more to just wearing clothing. When I look at designers collections, I am able to appreciate their art, but even more so when I understand the inspiration behind the design. Just like music, you can listen to a song and love it, but may not really understand the true meaning. Concept behind creation is important. I hope to not only create clothing people will love to wear, but also inspire them to continue their own creative passions such as music, art, etc.
