Hi Hillary, thank you for accepting our invitation! Would\u00a0you\u00a0like\u00a0to\u00a0explain\u00a0us\u00a0your\u00a0background?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I grew up in Los Angeles with a passion for horseback riding; once I grew up I attended a design school and then moved to New York in 2010.<\/p>\n

What’s your creative approach to design?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I start with fabrics that I believe to be conscious and prints that I then print on Rose Silk… In a nutshell I can say that I am obsessed with colorful print on print<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Then I just think of what I would want my friends to wear to certain occasions; for example: “What is she wearing to the beach?” or “What does he wear to dinner?”<\/p>\n
