Hand-dyed cobalt blue silk crepe de chine with gray/silver shell buttons, comes with a sash.  Another color I worked really hard on.  I'm wearing this without the sash next weekend to my friend's Jazz Age themed wedding on Shelter Island.

And that concludes the collection photos.  Working on the website now.  It's under maintenance for the time being, but I'll have items for sale in a couple of weeks.  Sign up for the mailing list for updates to the right in the blog sidebar.

Off-white and navy blue ikat top with wood buttons.  Perfect for keeping cool and comfortable in the heat.  Inspired by a friend with a lot of style.

Hand-dyed silk crepe de chine with gray/silver shell buttons.  I spent a lot of time getting this color just right.  It's bright but rusty at the same time, and it looks great with a summer tan.  I've always loved orange--such a happy color.

Lissa top.  Loose, cropped, comfortable.  French seams.  Hand-dyed silk crepe de chine.  This top is a total labor of love.  Named after my lovely former intern.  Read this post for details about the dyeing process.
