Collections
Nothings Real is a collection designed and inspired by the video game 'Grand Theft Auto'. Streetwear being the focus of this collection, classic elements like boxy hoodies, cropped pullovers, denim and elastic were main focal points. Inspired by LA street style, multiple motifs were designed by hand for graphics; which streetwear is most known for.
Midnight is a collection inspired by my late night drawings that keep me up at night. Influenced by lines and buildings, I iterated that into my patterns illustrated.
For Paul is a collection of day dresses inspired by a single look Sharon Tate was once photographed in. The floral print on cotton poplin is my iteration of a "forget me not flower" which honors her unborn son who also passed away the night the Manson murders occurred in Los Angeles, CA. His name would have been Paul.
Connor Sims for ERL is a concept collection I designed for the label 'ERL'. Born out of Venice Beach, CA, ERL is best known for their layering of soft knits, combination of vibrant pastels and varsity wear. The swirl hoodie is a staple from the brand and I wanted to create my own pattern repeats to show my version of it.
Soft Stitched is a handbag capsule collection designed using CLO made from 100% calfskin leather sourced from Italy. Inspired by patchwork and the classic tote bag. This was my iteration of a crafted carryall collection of pieces designed for easy everyday, on-the-go use.
