warm dark earth

“They sat together on a tree branch dripping over the edge. They were slowly being pulled into the earth like spilling honey. She glanced down at their feet and saw a red fox streak through the woods like a comet against the plush green grass. They sat above the cosmos, watching, waiting.”
My senior thesis at Pratt Institute was a collection made from entirely natural and biodegradable materials. Every color was achieved through natural dying and every texture and pattern was handmade specifically for this collection. The pieces were inspired by and based on a short story I wrote my senior year. Read the story by clicking the button below to see the inspiration for the clothes and to understand the progression of each look.
