Project Description

Fashion designer Taya Everett invited me to collaborate on two steel handbag concepts for her collection Riveted -a tribute to her childhood spent in airport hangars. The designs draw from aviation and re-constructivist influences, mirroring the collection’s sharp geometry and structural beauty. The project was featured in the SCAD Atlanta Fashion Show and selected for Vogue’s Digital Runway showcase.

The Riveted Bags are studies in steel, inspired by aircraft fuselages and the brutal elegance of reconstruction.
