Ondine

Ondine is a collection inspired by the ocean and what it inhabits.

I have been very fortunate to travel around the world and learn about different cultures. Every ocean is different, yet similar, just like people. The ocean has always been something that speaks to me. Shells, fish, sea glass, kelp, and coral inspired these designs. Shells have been used for hundreds of years in different cultures to represent fertility, as well as currency.

This collection represents me, But also where I came from. I named one of the garments Erna after my late grandmother, As well as used beads from the Czech Republic where she was born. Our world and oceans are ever changing. Like the ocean I am never the same, but I am always myself
