Project: Research and develop a plan for the design of a creative collaboration between a fashion accessories retailer and a collaborator that is not currently in the fashion business.
A collaboration between Star Wars and Maison Margiela will effectively promote both companies, introduce new customers to each party respectively, and allow for substantial financial growth.

OMAHA FASHION WEEK SS21
Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 the senior thesis collection show at my university was cancelled. The working progress of my BFA Thesis collection was then modified into this SS21 collection which was selected to show at Omaha Fashion Week in August 2020.
My thesis collection explores a fetish of sensuality. Incorporating a wide variety of fabrics and textures, my designs evoke a more intimate and stimulating experience, going beyond the visual and exploring the wearer’s sense of touch. The high neck silhouettes clinging tight to the body connected through the cold metal chains culminate these intimate sensations bringing to the surface inner taboos about closeness, constriction, agency, and control. The animal prints and textures intertwine a feral animalistic savage quality of human nature that is often held below the surface. My designs create outwardly sophisticated wearable silhouettes which physically and psychologically elicit a deeper intimate sensual stimulation.
