2023 CFDA Fashion Scholarship Fund Finalist

This collection challenges notions of conformity and explores the dynamics of individuality, diversity, and truth through symbolic garment design. Inspired by my high school experiences of surveillance and indoctrination, the pieces reflect hidden truths and varied perspectives, adapting to different body types and identities. Each garment symbolizes the tension between concealment and discovery, using adjustable elements, textured layering, and innovative materials like heat-sensitive fabrics to amplify the narrative.

This is not just a collection—it's a statement on the adaptability of identity and perspective in an
ever-evolving world.
