B.S. clothing design

These are two garments designed for my Senior Line. Inspiration for my line involved incorporating a lot of feelings and emotions that I felt while on a trip to Italy. I wanted my garments to allow air movement, be easy to wear, and, most important, comfortable and beautiful. These qualities will allow them to be worn in a variety of locations and occasions. I also gathered my color pallet from the Italian countryside and used this as the focus for my designs. Hand dyed garments ensure that my line represent myself as a designer and are one of a kind.
