A day in the life of a fashion start-up: picking up the 2nd run of the Sweetheart Shirtdress….it was such a hit I had to make more!

“Details make perfection, and perfection is not a detail.” — Leonardo da Vinci

Me smiling in the Club Shirt today 😊 The tab snaps at the collar are a detail taken from a 1960s-era men’s shirt—they were used to keep the collar points close together and to form a perfect window for your necktie.

I love being able to use the beautiful red-tipped selvedge of this Japanese oxford cloth, making the functional tabs beautiful, too.

That’s me, trying to find some humor in a humiliating moment a few months ago. I was let go that day from a freelance design gig, and this is me leaving with all of my belongings—but make it fashion! 😂 I’m sharing this—not for sympathy—but as a reminder that failure is not fatal or final. Just a stepping stone. Keep moving!
