Inspirit Insomniac is about a free spirited, introverted girl who thrives in the night. She is a creative who feels she has to escape modern technology and search for a new meaning in the depths of her dreams. She embraces darkness as a scenery of blurred reality, dressed in embroidered sheer voile, delicate velvet and natural dyed silk.  The nocturne design is intended to show her innocent sexuality and edgy boldness as an almost sleepwalking fairy tale.

This is my senior design collection that I built during my final Fall semester. From start to finish, I designed each silk piece using natural dye derived from red cabbage, strawberries, indigo and spinach. I created each embroidered piece and hand-sewed the lace details. I was juried into the Threads Collective Fashion Show at NCSU and had the chance to reveal each garment to the audience.
