I’m excited to announce Fashion in the Woods 2026, a community runway event debuting my new collection “The Glass Between Us,” created from reclaimed pandemic plexiglass. See link for details! This project is funded by a 2026 KADI grant through the Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo.

New wip: lasercut chain link, leopard pattern dress.

Newest make / wip. Shoulders made from scraps of a deconstructed adidas windbreaker I’ve had since 2011. I layered the neon red nylon on scraps of my own custom designed fabric, then quilted on cotton batting. Sleeves are made from custom printed silk, designed by yours truly. & lasercut chains.

wip—heart corset made with reclaimed materials: fluorescent pink rip stop nylon is from a deconstructed wind breaker; lining from reclaimed silk; patterned fabric behind the pink nylon is from studio scraps of custom printed spandex. Straps and skirt coming soon.

wip. I’ve disappeared into my sewing machine for the last two weeks. I loved making this heart-shaped corset piece. I printed each piece of the pattern with cyanotype. Fabric is reclaimed from an old cotton-linen curtain.

Hear, hear!!!
