womenswear fall/winter 2006 2007

This collection references organic shapes, repetitive as in fractals, and the mixing of hard and soft materials, knits and wovens. The silhouettes were precisely draped, and drafted, for the most natural shaping on the body. Materials were carefully placed to address the natural function of a garment, much in the same way a snail builds a shell. The colors are subdued and tonal, but not flat - they are soft with energy. The line consists of pieces that allow for stacking and layering, and also mixing of textures and silhouettes; and although it looks natural when worn together, it also can combine very well other lines. The pieces are all very intentionally finished, from inside and out. You will find rough edges mixed with elegent french-seams; nothing is covered up and the organic or raw becomes very precise and skilled. The line is a very small run, enjoy.
