The "KIMONO" - the Elegance
The basis of my design concept. My jacket designs have been based on this silhouette for over 20 years. It is a easy comfortable style that can designed in many different fabric types. Silks, Rayons, Wools and Cottons. The basis for the Kimono is that is a garment with history, style and comfort.
I love the Elegance of this garment

Looking for inspiration is an ongoing process. I love looking at fabrics. Touching and feeling the fabric, it will tell me what it wants to become and I listen. The process of finding the right fabric, ribbon, button or trim, is all in the imagination
The search, the hunt, the discovery is the thrill.
