Design Philosophy
I design with a glass half full mentality, creating looks that exude positive energy. My concepts usually rooted in comedy, optimism, camp, using innovation to use found or second hand materials. I pull inspiration from pop culture, novels, and found objects when developing prints. I love using bright colors, campy themes, kitschy motifs, and bold prints to make the wearer feel warm and confident. Always making collections for those who seize the day with positivity. Funky, happy clothing designed to feed our souls, and fuel smiles. :)
