School of Apparel Design & Development

My love for style stems from my older sister filling my head with a lot of culture when I was an elementary school kid. I became fixated on streetwear and how skateboarders dressed. I was half decent on a board at the skatepark but I had the coolest taste in clothes. Thank you, Felicia! It’s evolved into me being obsessed with the intersections of fine art, photography and high fashion. From moments on the side of any city street, all the way up to runways of both the past and present, clothes need to communicate an authentic story.  

My final line is titled Infirmary. It aims to provide traditional menswear separates rooted in mid-century American battledress. Woolens, classic tailoring applications, and hand worked appliques reveal the sinister undertones of wartime.
