Time to revive the blog!

I cannot promise anything but I will do my best to update as often as possible. After 2.5 years in Toronto, I’ve taken the leap to London. While Toronto has been an excellent stepping stone, I’m very excited to have something to really write home about.

Today I’m sitting in a nice little organic coffee shop off Commercial in East London. The soundtrack is off the hook for a Monday morning and I couldn’t be more thrilled. This town definitely has a great vibe. It’s old world meets new world: patchwork sidewalks, colourful alley ways, brick and glass. Walking around feels like the equivalent of learning to brush your teeth with the opposite hand.

While I have no idea where I’m going to fit into the whole equation this early in the game, I am very much at ease. Bouts of déjà vu and little miracles serve as perpetual encouragement to keep right along.

After 4 months of endless days of sketching, sourcing, fitting, stitching, shooting, here is a glimpse into the first original movie made for the Disney+ streaming platform. I had a blast assisting NYC Costume Designer Liz Vastola making our vision a reality. Very proud of what we achieved here. 

Finally checked out the Mugler exhibit this past summer while in Montreal. Incredibly inspirational! Was nearly nose to seam, checking out the flawless hand appliqué and delicate french seams. Will definitely be drawing from this for future creations. Somebody give me a reason to  recreate this red tulle wire bustle!
