Before the collections, before the brand, there were sketchbooks filled with imagination…
Pages from my childhood drawing book.
Origins of a dream.
Fashion has been part of my world for as long as I can remember. Long before The Flaneur and The Commuter, there was a little girl sketching dresses in the margins of her schoolbooks, dreaming of runways and fabrics she hadn’t yet touched. For hours I would sit and design looks that would flow spontaneously. This page is a glimpse into that beginning, the first spark of the passion that grew into a life pursuing fashion.
From the wide-eyed wonder of a child to the focused vision of a designer. They’re a reminder that every refined idea begins with raw curiosity and a love of making that blooms over time, but for me, always driven by the same dream: to create beauty.
These early designs are from around ages 11-16 when I started my Instagram page to post my designs, you can still find these on my page if you scroll down far enough!
