I designed and constructed a collection of dresses to be showcased at the Reno Fashion Show ’15. All of the designs were created in a month, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the process and push myself as a designer and maker. I was the youngest designer to be featured in the show that included professionals and established names such as Banana Republic. It was definitely intimidating and I was quite worried that I would not be on par with the rest of the designers, but I am so glad that I got to be a part of the show.
