SS2018 New York Fashion Week Presentation

At the sound of the bell, on the eve of a full moon, 16 women wearing the Spring/Summer 2018 collection gathered for a performance of choreographed movements and spoken word.  The movements and wardrobe were an exhibition of feminine energy, connection, and acceptance of both the light and dark sides of ourselves.

The choreography, music, set, and wardrobe were designed collectively as an exhibition and celebration of all forms of femininity and our pursuit of connection to others and to ourselves. The collection addresses the feminine stereotypes of, and explores variations on, DIY and craft techniques for multi-functional, inclusive wearables.
