The fabrics used in this season’s collection are Silk, Linen, Cotton, leather and novelty fabrics. Our fabric choices focus on comfort, versatility and timeless design,” stated Evelyn Luna, lead designer.
Scott Chester stated: “This collection will highlight how utilizing un-processed materials we’re able to create a finished product that will provide energy to [our] audience.”
