Carol has a 25 year career dedicated to making unique handcrafted clothing. She personally constructs each garment one by one building collections made from carefully selected fine materials. Her dressing concept encompasses coordinated silhouettes layered for style and comfort. She has designed an understated, timeless look meant to be collected piece by piece over many seasons.

These one of a kind pieces are done using shibori techniques on Japanese silk.

TRAVEL COLLECTION: The ease of traveling with these silk seperates (examples below) comes from being able to crush up your clothing into a small space and put together an outfit by layering the coordinating pieces. Choose from the basic tunics, dresses, bottoms and accessories in selected colors to assemble your travel wardrobe.
