Kanae Dress and Robe, 2019
Upcycled men's dress shirt to create a fitted Dress. The dress is shirred at the waist to create a fitted silhouette from the front. The back has boldly hand-painted kanji characters spelling out 'Kanae' -my middle name-.
This robe was created with a jacquard fabric with an oriental floral pattern. The robe is thick and holds it's shape well. It was inspired by a kimono silhouette and style but with a modern approach. The seam along the center back brings the robe closer to the body.
