The Inspiration
She sits in the heavenly's on the banks of crystal blue waters, basking in perfect light.
Margie, my grandmother, was the kind of woman who approached her life with ease — she was authentic and warm. I remember her humor and her fondness of muumuus.
As a shortened version of The Margie muumuu, it's important that it equally reflects an essence of authentic sentiment, with no thought of trends or markets. The design had to offer comfortable elegance and charm, sweetly nuanced with flair.
The Fabric
Not silk.
Not Linen.
Something rarer.
Lotus Silk is an exquisite and uncommon fabric made from the stem fibers of the lotus flower. It is both durable and dreamy. Its hand is soft, buttery smooth, and lightweight, like a blend of silk and fine linen, with a subtle sheen that adds to its elegance and special nature. It has incredible breathability, is antibacterial, and hypoallergenic. It offers a cool touch in warmer weather.
Rare origin
Stem fibers of the lotus flower, harvested by hand
Breathable
Cool in warmth, warming in cool — regulates naturally
Healing frequency
Like linen, carries a Hz resonance considered beneficial to the body
Hypoallergenic
Antibacterial, gentle on all skin types
Fit & Features: Relaxed silhouette • Boxy drape • Softly scooped neckline • Cap‑style sleeves • Adjustable ribbon tie
Adoring the feel of refined, modest elegance, and the way it moves.
The Margie Box Blouse – signature double lined Lotus Silk in natural / white.
My goal was to design a versatile summer blouse to elevate the basic white tee, and for that it had to be luxurious with a beautiful soft drape, and flattering comfort. The design is inspired by my late grandmother Margie's love of muumuu's. It features a balanced longer backside for modest coverage, a cap-like sleeve, and a wide neck.
Its relaxed silhouette drapes naturally, allowing the Lotus Silk to move with quiet fluidity while the adjustable ribbon tie offers gentle shaping when desired.

Intuitive Process
Bring forward through layers
While I am painting constantly in my mind, when I do get a chance to stand before a canvas, most often I load it up with paint and stand back. To study. Interact. To be emotional and seek what is there.
Expression
From literal art translation to rendered patternwork
The artful journey is never over, at least not for me. There may be times of rest, but no peice ever becomes barren of inspiration.
Beauty Within
Intuitively inspired design and curated possibilities
Thoughtfully sourced and created collections to compliment uniqueness and ignite a spirit of creative beauty.
