SPREZZATURA
Sprezzatura means Effortless Elegance in Italian. This theme was influenced by my time abroad in Florence, Italy. I draw inspiration from the colors of Florentine cobblestone and unique landscape of the city’s skyline, then combine them with hard style lines inspired by my idol, Coco Chanel. I incorporate a great deal of my own artistic qualities including turning my photography into unique embroidery and painting Italian skylines on my designs.
