Behold-Her

The trench is paneled in curved shapes and lines meant to accent and complement the body.

Three leather types were used: embossed matte and patent crocodile and plain lamb skin.

Front view of garment: a full-length, olive caped dress with side cutouts

This dress accentuates the natural female form with purposeful cutouts.

Side view of garment: full-length, olive caped dress with large side cutouts

The dress curves along naturally with the body, fitted with a high shoulder to empower.

Behold-Her is a collection that focuses on the celebration of the female form and the reclamation of her sexuality. I was inspired by abstract nude paintings that depict the natural curvature of women with fluid, loose brushstrokes in a serene tone. This imagery reflects the openness and freedom women have in their own skin, a strength I emulate through intentionally placed cutouts and curved seam lines that enhance the body.
