This previous semester I completed the largest project of my college career, my senior collection. Due to the pandemic my collection took some major setbacks, however that did not stop me from creating five unique looks that I am incredibly proud of.
"Reclamation is a collection inspired by a contemplative journey through human emotions. Emotion is conveyed in each piece through its silhouette, texture, and color. The collection takes its onlooker on an exploration through the good, the bad, and everything in between, but it depends on their own interpretation."
