SS2012
COLLECTION: THE MIDNIGHT GARDEN
The Midnight Garden Capsule Collection was created specifically for Dress Rehearsal, an event to benefit the Boys & Girls Club in the Twin Cities.
The vivacious muse of this collection was the energetic members of the North Boys & Girls Club. The clubs are full of positive, inspiring and unique children which was so evident in the vibrantly painted self portraits that hang on the outside of the building. As the collection evolved and more and more colors were added to the pallet a strong sense of individuality and confidence with oneself became the integral theme. The entire collection is as varied as the singing flowers in Alice in Wonderland with a vast array of silhouettes, textures and colors. It is a celebration of the beauty that is unique to each of us.
