Inspired by the movement of the model. The top is meant to emulate a pearl as the caped portions open to reveal her. The dress begins completely folded, then opens and embraces. Over 20 yards of organza; the cape boned with acrylic to create movement and drama.

Inspired by the mussel shells found on the beaches of Half Moon Bay, thirty minutes from Stanford's campus. A testament to friendship and to beauty found in items often considered ugly. Shells were collected on spontaneous beach days, prepped in a dorm bathroom, and drilled by hand.
800+ mussel shells hand-sewn and locally collected · raw-satin sculpted bodice · hand-drilled, structured necklace
