Spring/Summer 2009

I've been designing for as long as I can remember, and have taken it on more seriously in the last year. A couple of months ago I organized a photoshoot for my newest women's designs for spring. I was really happy with how it turned out! I chose a great team of friends to model (Geneviève,) take photos (Lainie), and manage makeup, hair and accessories (Sandra). I was really touched by how much energy everyone put into the project, and the spirit of co-operation made it a really fun day. Seeing my ideas come to life this way is extremely gratifying!

I am finally blogging

After thinking about doing this for ages, the time has finally come! I kept a journal since the age of six and really enjoyed it. Then my brother read it when I was about 12 and I stopped writing completely, for 20 years! What a shame! Writing helps to organize thoughts, define ideas, and connect the threads of experience. With two kids, two clothing lines, and way more ideas than time on my hands, I could certainly use some mental organization!

So this blog will be about the things I make, the things I like, and the dots that connect them. Thanks for reading! Please feel free to leave a comment if you have anything to add, it's nice to know you're out there!
