Selected work.

Four collections on the way fabric holds its shape, catches light and moves around the body.

Form in motion.

A study of what a garment becomes when the body moves.

Shape begins
at the table.

I work between pattern cutting and draping. A seam can hold a shoulder in place or let a sleeve fall differently with every step. The fittings tell me where the fabric needs support and where it needs room.

In my Paris studio, I cut the first version in calico. I fit it in motion, then return to the pattern to refine the lines before cutting the final cloth.

Test the volume.

Calico makes it easy to see where the cloth pulls and where the shape holds.

Follow the movement.

The final cloth has its own weight. I adjust the pattern after seeing it move.
