The Story

My grandmother, a total badass named Lorraine, taught me to sew by hand at a young age. She was a sweetheart, and our love language was the "Pop Kiss" - a kiss on the cheek with a big *POP* sound at the end. I also remember her being very strong-minded. She took her meds with whisky shots and always spoke her truth. She loved the color lavender (now my favorite) and liked big fabulous hats, turquoise jewelry, and Victorian silhouettes. I guess you could say she is my muse and inspiration.

My fashion designs embody her spirit, breaking conventional norms, and challenging the status quo. Hand-crafted by yours truly and locally produced wherever I wander, each piece tells a unique tale. I utilize upcycling, hand methods, the power of artificial intelligence and a lot of love in my designs.

I got my first machine at age 15 and have been slinging threads since, Though not officially launched outside of one-off commissions, I hope to secure funding and produce my first run to be sold online. Follow along on Instagram to see where it goes!
