thesis photo shoot behind the scenes!

today was our photoshoot for the fashion show programs. we got 3 of our 5 looks photographed, but for legal reasons, the department doesn't have rights to them, so i took my own. excuse the blurriness- i am a terrible photographer!
also: i want to say a big thank you to my models, who worked so hard to look so good. you guys are the best!

thank you ian...

senior thesis update

denim denim denim! 2 out of 3 jeans are sewn (except for the beltloops) and waiting to be stonewashed and distressed this weekend.

and also, the first shirt is almost finished. i love this print so much--especially after i coffee dyed it to make it look vintage.

also on the close-to-be-completed list is my very fancy cable sweater. stay tuned :)

a collection for spring!

this year most of my collections have been headed in the fall/winter direction, so i figured my portfolio needs a little cheer.
