- Summary/Artist Statement
- The Rebel Ballerina Edit honors spunky ballerinas, inspired by my upbringing as an outsider in the dance world. By blending modern and vintage lingerie trends and juxtaposing soft silhouettes with sharp design details, the collection tells the story of a glamorous, indie sleaze dancer who exudes effortless confidence. Ultimately, the collection redefines what it means to be delicate by proving that strength, individuality, and femininity can coexist unapologetically.
