Wednesday, May 9, 2012 was a momentous evening for me. It was the night of my senior fashion show, Campus Couture. I have been working on designs for this particular show since September 2011, and my garments came to life on the runway with the help of my fabulous models, Karrah, Stacy, Lily, Alexis, Sara, Jessica, Marin, and Victoria. I am so proud of my collection entitled “Vintage Romance.” It was inspired by my style icon, Audrey Hepburn, and the elegance of the 1950s. I incorporated romantic details such as lace and ruffles, along with a pastel color palette inspired by the Kate Spade quote, “Live Colorfully!” Below are photos and a video from the runway and backstage on one of the best nights of my life!
