Artist's Statement
In honor of the brave firefighters of New York, especially those who selflessly gave their lives on 9/11, we dedicate this jacket made from a firehose. It symbolizes their courage, resilience, and unwavering commitment to saving lives. These heroes faced the unimaginable with strength and resolve, embodying the true spirit of sacrifice and duty. May this tribute serve as a lasting reminder of their bravery and the profound impact they have left on our hearts and our history. We honor their memory and their legacy, forever grateful for their service.

My Journey Toward Sustainable Fashion
I began my journey to redefine fashion in 2005 and have since dedicated my life to sustainable and ethical fashion. Throughout my life, I have envisioned a future where fashion and sustainability seamlessly interlace. To me, fashion is about more than just design; it is also about embracing my responsibility to protect the environment for future generations. These six natural fibers are a reflection of this responsibility, extending not only to fashion but also to the preservation of life as we know it. My philosophy lies in the coexistence of nature and fashion in a relationship that protects the ecosystem. Fur, leather, cotton, wool, cashmere, and silk are just what are needed to realize this sustainable future.
