I am pursuing my associate’s degree in Fashion Merchandising. I enjoy running my business of custom hand-embroidered tote bags at IvanaThreads, and I also sew on my free time. I aspire to be a stylist, whether it be wardrobe, personal, etc. My current inspirations include Aleali May, Salehe Bembury, and Doja Cat!
I sourced textiles for my garment through the unwanted clothing of my friends and family. I created a pair of pants and a jacket.

Taking unwanted clothing and repurposing them to create new garments keeps them out of the landfill by giving them a new life. By reusing these items, I am choosing the option to renew their life cycles as opposed to letting them be thrown in the landfills.
