[RISD ’09, Apparel Design]
The brilliant colors and rich textures
in my collection, called Faux Chill, are taken from the carnival-like
Santa Monica Pier in California, and the long, flowing silhouettes and
ephemeral qualities of the garments are reminiscent of a walk on Venice
Beach at daybreak. Like a beach environment that is forever changing,
these dresses similarly explore the ability of silks and meshes to constantly
change their form and shape with a gesture of the wearer. I have hand-dyed
all of the fabrics using painting, dying, bleaching and distressing
techniques, and I constructed all jewelry from objects I discovered
on beach walks, playing on the notion that what one pockets on a stroll
can then be worn to further adorn the body.
