Over the past couple months, I have been busy working on my newest collection, Into the Woods.
I went into my own backyard for inspiration.
Bringing home some twigs and branches to spray paint, and make one-of-a-kind headpieces, and appliques for my bridal sashes.
I want my dresses to make my brides feel like a woodland fairy princess, and that is my inspiration for this collection.

Attention Hair/Makeup Artists: Looking for Hair and Makeup artists to join me for my April 16th RAW showcase, Exposure. My models will be walking around the Orpheum(Tampa/Ybor) all night with business cards of mine and their hair & makeup artists. And after my runway show, we all walk the runway, so the crowd knows who did what. Models will be wearing wedding dress designs from one of my collections, Gatsby Inspired Brides, Mermaid Inspired Brides, or my newest, Into the Woods Bridal.
