It all started when a friend reached out to make her prom dress. Seeing how this could be an opportunity to further develop her design skills Angeles took a chance. From that one dress, multiple followed. Shortly after she was making custom designs for bridal, costumes, evening wear and even throwing alterations onto the list. This evolved her ability to put her practice into real life such as design consultations, sourcing textiles, pattern making and fittings.

"Leaf Dress"
Inspired by the emotion of feeling safe in nature, the leaf dress embodies the organic shape of a leaf wrapping around the body. The idea is to capture the physical perception of the natural world around you becoming one with self. The leaf dress features a halter neckline in the shape of "leaves" hugging your neck. Then follows the body with a playful asymmetrical seam line that smoothly ends in a trumpet silhouette.
