A Woman Under Construction
My inspiration for this collection comes from my own experiences in middle and high school, when I wore a back brace to treat my scoliosis. During that time, I often struggled with feeling self-conscious about my body. I wanted to create dresses that not only fit comfortably over a back brace, but could make younger me feel beautiful and confident, no matter what I was going through physically.
Every dress in my collection is thoughtfully designed to expand and contract, adapting to a variety of body shapes. I hope to enhance the wearer's natural beauty by designing dresses that are modest, edgy, and unique. I was inspired by Roman statues that imortalize womens natural beauty. That is what I hope to do with each dress.
