What’s the inspiration behind your Spring collection?

“Spring 2015 is inspired by the colors, atmosphere, and freshness of morning light. The collection is a celebration of a minimalist femininity with a palette of soft blushes, celadons, and blues anchored by white, camel, and black. Structural crepes, delicate pleated chiffons, modern tweeds, laces, and salt-airbrushed denim combine to create a wardrobe for a woman with a strong, unwavering sense of self.”

What are you looking forward to wearing?

“Fall for me is always about great outerwear. An amazing coat transforms, not only your outfit, but your attitude. If you splurge on anything for fall, make sure it’s a coat.”

How did you say farewell to summer?

“I’m refusing to say goodbye to summer! I’m in denial that it’s coming to an end.”

What was your main form of procrastination while working on your Spring collection?

“I discovered, a little late, House of Cards and became obsessed.”
