We were invited to participate in Omaha fashion week in 2019. We were a bit of a fish out of water since as another designer explained it to me: “we design our collection and then scurry around at the last minute to find the right footwear. You start with the footwear and build up.” It was a fantastic experience and we were so proud to be awarded as the best designer of the day and a finalist for the best of the week. Our collection was dedicated to the people where my textiles are hand woven, the Andes.
