Designer Spotlight💡

Zöe started her foray in fashion design way back in the 80s, when, as she says, “I was so naïve I didn’t know I couldn’t do it. so I just did it.” She was going to school at UWM for Inter-Arts - music, dance, theater - when she took a design class and “just started making clothes kind of obsessively:”

Milwaukee has a thriving fashion design scene and Zoe has been networking in it since her first show years ago, which she heard about through the grapevine and was an MATC / Channel 10 fashion show: “In my experience of showing up, showing up. showing up. you just keep getting invited to participate.” Since those carly days, there have been shows at many different venues including Beulah Brinton Historical So-ciety, the Grace Center, Saint James 1868, the Ramada Inn, Bayshore Mall, and the Public Museum for Milwaukee Fashion Week 2025 and 2026 as well as as Art in Bloom Fashion show spring of 2026!

Come see Zoe this August!
