SOMOS
For my community and for those who pushed me to never give up, thank you.
This collection primarily consists of different shades of blue and white with colors like yellow, red, and green being accents. Growing up with a Colombian mother and Salvadorean father in a mixed Hispanic family and a diverse community; my collection honors my people, our way of life, and our hardworking mannerisms. It consists of upcycled denim, unconventional materials, and techniques like crochet to show that, even with limited resources, we still find ways to be creative. The overall silhouettes are inspired by tradition, stereotypes, and our attitude toward looking presentable no matter the circumstances.
