Be Still
This collection is deeply personal. It was born from a place of stillness—one that I found only by the ocean. The textures and lines within the gowns mimic the quiet patterns of the beach: the grooves in seashells, the wind-swept sand, and the way water smooths everything over. The creative process for this collection was meditative; I would sketch while listening to ocean sounds, allowing that serenity to guide the structure of each gown. The spiritual message I received during that time was clear: be still and trust. It challenged me to slow down my design process and prioritize texture, movement, and emotion over trend. The result was a collection that felt both grounded and free—anchored in a place of surrender.
