The “Boundaries” collection is inspired by a feeling of leaving comfort zones and defying personal boundaries. It focuses on the idea of how a garment can be transformed by adding and taking away different components, and how texture and conceptual embellishment can provide freedom and spontaneity in movement.

As a designer, I have always been inspired by the way clothing can have so much beauty, while also having so much intention. I design with the intention to break away from my own comfort zones, and to consistently work toward an evolution of self-exploration. I design because it is my outlet to express my genuine self, and because I am incredibly astounded by the ability clothing has to make a person feel completely and unapologetically themselves.
