Fall/Winter 2011-2012 Capsule Collection
An exploration in texture, materials and modern utilitarianism
An exploration in texture, materials and modern utilitarianism
Initially inspired by the essence of Metropolitan Amazonia, this collection addresses the needs of powerful urban utilitarian amazons, visually fabulous while braving intense modern city life. Focused upon a blending and layering of textures; cozy machine knits, decadent furs, sharp hand-airbrushed leather, shearlings and tailored wool; this collection embodies utilitarian,sophisticated street-wear. Many of my garments are designed with functioning storage space, incorporated within the body and collars of the garments, and detachable pocket harnesses as an alternative to traditional handbags. By combining these elements, I strive to give this urban, workingwoman, a uniform for conquering her world, finally recognized by all others, even though she knew it all along.
