Collection Statement

Shot on location in the skate parks and rocky outcroppings of Montauk, a collection as richly varied as the seasons it touches, as free-spirited as the wild wind and the mist that clings to the ocean. Transparency and movement. Elegance paired with a playful irreverence. The body is elongated, celebrated. The hand of the artist foregrounded in gestures both sweeping and delicate.Floating chiffon and floral crepe caught adrift in the saline breeze, the sun filtered through Chantilly lace and reflecting off of sculpted leather, dense sequins, foiled knits. The form is cocooned and revealed, shapes abbreviated and exaggerated, the woman emerges—confident and complicated, as myriad as the landscape that holds her.
