Upcycling Project: Coastelle

This collection was completed as part of my Senior Product development course, which focuses on sustainable fashion through upcycling techniques. Working collaboratively with Taylor Durant and Rilee Roberts, I designed an original upcycled garment collection based on trend research, fabric analysis, technical development, and construction execution.

Drawing inspiration from three major trends, Coastal Chic, Sequins ,Appliques, and Corchet, the project embodies an oceanic aesthetic emphasizing natural textures. 

The designs were established using the following materials: a striped button-up dress, a sleeveless button-up lace shirt, two long-sleeved crochet sweaters, and a deep blue scarf.
