NOT SURE WHY BEGINNING SO BURY… KEEP WATCHING🫶🏼 TRUST Deluxe (2025) expands on my previous collection with 13 looks, including five new designs that deepen the emotional journey of trust, betrayal, and healing. Trust is something we give freely in relationships and friendships, often without knowing if it will be reciprocated. There are four stages of trust: neutral, contractual, mutual, and pure trust. Yet, in today’s world, vulnerability is often seen as a weakness. This collection tells the story of a woman who gives her full trust, experiences the pain of manipulation and betrayal, and ultimately finds healing—learning to choose wisely while staying true to herself. This year, I fully creative directed every detail—model looks, hair, makeup, and wardrobe styling—and incorporated dancers with choreography I personally created. The movement represents the tension of trust, the weight of betrayal, and the release of self-discovery, making this collection a fusion of fashion, storytelling, and performance. Through bold silhouettes, layered textures, and unexpected textile contrasts, the designs embody the push and pull of emotions—from fragility to strength. TRUST Deluxe (2025) is more than a collection; it’s an immersive experience that speaks to the power of trust, the pain of betrayal, and the beauty of resilience. S/O to my whole team who made my vision come to life!

My first ever mini collection fully designed and made by me @thewan.and.only Is apart of the full collection I designed inspired by today’s Hip-hop, R&B music videos with my personal background as pro dancer, performer with my own unique style, understanding of colors. As I see myself working with some top music artists in near future to help them bring out their artistry, creativity, visions through fashion in music videos and live performances. This mini collec specially inspired by @coileray and her latest song “Aye Yai Yai” ft. @bleuvandross from her latest album “Trendsetter” This time I really pushed myself to think how I would like to design& style for @coileray as if I’m doing this music video for her and @bleuvandross This collec also was my first time ever really legit designed and made a full look of menswear😌 Past two months developing concept, meetings to set my visual, endless pattern drafting, sewing, fitting days and nights. I really wanna just say as much sometimes might feel kinda overwhelmed, stressed, honestly just so excited to learn some new, do what I passion and love everyday🥲 when it feels right, you just enjoy the process and feel happy haha.

This set is for the girls who don’t ask for attention… they are the attention. Bold. Sculpted. Unapologetic. 
Designed to hug every curve and command every room you walk into. The crop top features a sleek high neckline + invisible back zipper for that clean, snatched fit.
The shorts? Yeah… they said what needed to be said: “She bad. I love her. Girl bye.” 💅🏽 Wear it together for the full statement or style it your own way — either way, you’re THAT girl. • Handmade
