My time spent in LA was mainly based in menswear, so it was really cool to look back at my growth and see my versatility in designing for all genders. When designing for women today, I take a very "menswear" approach (in terms of streamlining, tailoring, effortlessness), yet still try to keep a feminine sensuality to the clothing. I like to blur the lines between business-casual, streetwear, and athleisure by choosing traditional suiting and mixing things up with utilitarian fabrics. We live in an era where women can finally be accepted for their strength and independence; I love the idea of creating clothing that reflects this cultural progress in our society.
