SATURATION A/W 23

This 12 look collection was created to reflect future trends for 2023 based off of ready-to-wear runway collections, street wear, and red carpet looks. The collection was made to be a marketable and production ready collection.

VIVID S/S 2023

This collection was inspired by the bold fashion movement in a post lock down world. The collection features trend forecasting and analysis to predict the upcoming summer trends, an original textile design, and 12 full looks.

PRIMARK COMPETITION

This collection was created for Primark's scholarship competition, of which my project was chosen as a top five finalist. In this collection I explore trend forecasting, marketing, and speccing, while also keeping the Primark customer in mind. I followed the trend of 60's western revival.

KENNETH COLE COLLECTION 2021

This eight look shoe collection was inspired by Maya Angelou and her life in the 1960's. This project was meant for the Kenneth Cole competition, which because of the pandemic, did not happen. The collection features research on the defending of arts programs for children, how it disproportionately affects marginalized people, and how access to the arts is actually beneficial to children.

LA LUNA: SUSTAINABLE COLLECTION

This collection was created as a sustainable ready-to-wear collection. I focused on limiting sizing, using natural dyes, and organic fibers as a solution to the damaging practices of the fast fashion industry. I also created a digital design journal that includes samples and processes of natural dyeing.

HANDBAG COLLECTION 2021

This five piece handbag collection was inspired by spring colors, the lines and textures of insect wings, and classic 60's western styles. Instead of doing classic digital flats I drew the anatomy of each bag by hand, giving you a look at the inner and outer construction of the bags.

RING COLLECTION 2021

This four piece ring collection was inspired by turquoise. Each ring was design around a different stone to create four ring with their own personality. This collection also features a research page dedicated to the Native American origins of turquoise and the place that it has within their culture, as well as outlining contemporary artists.

MET GALA COLLECTION

This collection is inspired by the 2020 MET Gala theme "TIME: Fashion & Duration".  The inspiration for the collection was the idea of time as a cycle of life and death by representing decay and rebirth.

UNWIND YOURSELF GROUP COLLECTION

This project was created a group collaboration. The inspiration for the collection was to create a collection that was current to the time. This collection was created in 2020 during the pandemic, while their was a rise in lounge wear trends and neutral earth tones.
