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.
