The practical romantic
Demi-couture clothing made to order in New York City
Sustainability starts with owning only the things that you love.
Introducing collection 9
Last season, I was presenting my collection to a
stylist on the final day of my showroom in Paris.
In that moment, I had the realization that circles
were a recurrent element in all of my previous
collections.
I began to notice circles everywhere... in my ownwork and randomly going about daily life —
an embroidered edge running around a ruffled hem,
eyelets in organdy, a skirt silhouette cut in the
shape of circle, a spiraling fabric rose, the loop
of a bow, the “o” in the “Prospect Park” subway
sign, a manhole cover, the detail on the facade of
a Brooklyn row house, the studs on a stranger’s
handbag, the center of a flower...
I like that circles are continuous and unending,
yet also complete — are used to select and separate
what’s important, are encompassing, and mimic the
curves of the body.
This collection celebrates the looping nature and
simplicity of circles.
