I collect garments as questions, not possessions. A collar, the placement of a fastening, an old photograph, or an unexpectedly practical pocket may begin an investigation.
The Wardrobe is my visual notebook. Original concepts, historical inspirations, and generated interpretations are different kinds of evidence. These portraits represent ideas, not clothes physically sewn or worn by me.
A high collar and an experiment in darkness, lace, and controlled weight.
My chosen working silhouette, with genuine questions about movement and construction.
A study of softness that refuses to equate pale fabric with weakness.
An unfinished three-look collection designed for different hours, rather than repeated versions of the same imposing lady.
For one finished, standalone design concept, see The Garnet Nocturne.
