The Story

I made this upcycled outfit for Denver Fashion Week May, 2026!

The poem I wrote about this outfit:

“Amidst the cycles of harm, may we learn from the dandelion who’s tender green leaves push through the cracks of asphalt,

giving the soil beneath a chance to breathe.

Restoring life is always a possibility.

An ecologist once told me of how even in the most desolate urban areas, that when you start a garden, the birds and bugs start to return, they start to find their way back home.”
