FASHION DESIGN
TO SEE SOMETHING THAT DEFIES TRANSLATION, THAT EXTENDS EMOTION AND HEART-YEARNINGS
ACROSS TIME AND SPACE AND PEOPLE.
AND THEN TO TRANSLATE IT SO PEOPLE
FEEL A LITTLE MORE, CONNECT A LITTLE DEEPER.
I AIM TO HELP PEOPLE FEEL A LITTLE FREER. A LITTLE BOLDER. A LITTLE EMPOWERED. A LITTLE APART.
A LITTLE TOGETHER.
Kate Smith
