About Me
Hey there! I'm Sam, a creative soul with a passion for fashion and a knack for designing intimate apparel that's as unique as you are. As someone with a disability and identifying as agender, I bring a perspective to my designs that celebrates diversity, inclusivity, and self-expression. Embracing my agender identity has been a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, and it informs every aspect of my work.
During my time at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), I found my true passion for lingerie and the transformative power it holds. Through my studies and experiences, I discovered how lingerie has the ability to evoke confidence, sensuality, and empowerment. It's this profound connection that drives my desire to create intimate apparel that makes others feel the same way. With this diverse background, I've embarked on a journey to redefine what it means to feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable in your own skin.
My design philosophy is simple: embrace your individuality, celebrate your curves, and wear your confidence like a crown.
When I'm not sketching away in my studio or poring over fabric swatches, you can find me doting on my two adorable bunnies, Luffy and Ace. They're my furry children, always ready to get into trouble when I'm designing. Whether they're hopping around my workspace, chewing on stray fabric pieces, or simply lounging and watching me work, they bring joy and a bit of mischief to my creative process.
Whether I'm exploring new trends, experimenting with bold colors, or simply enjoying some down time, creativity fuels every aspect of my life. Above all, I believe that fashion is a form of self-expression—a way to tell your story without uttering a word. And in a world where conformity often reigns supreme, I'm here to shake things up, one stitch at a time.
So, whether you're here to browse through my portfolio, collaborate on a project, or simply share a love for all things fashion, I'm thrilled to have you along for the ride! Let's create something beautiful together. Cheers to embracing your unique style and celebrating the magic of self-expression!
