The Designer
I’ve always loved making people feel beautiful.
After years of working in the Fashion Industry as a Bridal Stylist and designer, I lost the joy that brought me into the industry. I watched hundreds of brides purchase the same dress, and brands mass produce garments season after season. I wondered when we had we lost the craft of dress making and treasuring our wardrobes for years and even generations to come.
I wanted to design one of kind dresses. To take back what has been lost and to honor the craft, to start making art again. The custom and small batch process brings us back to our roots and back to the idea that our clothes are art. What we wear and where it comes from matters.
I specialize in up-cycling dresses to maintain family heirlooms, source sustainable and dead stock fabrics to reduce waste, and botanically dye natural silk for one of kind gowns. I design for the Wild Brides, the brides who honor the earth and for those who want a dress they will never forget.
Just like every great Love, every great Dress has a story and I’d be honored to help tell yours.
