I'm a biology graduate turned fashion design student and I don't know how I got here. An odd turn of events has me chasing my truest dream of becoming a fashion designer. One problem, I've never sewn before this year. To feel like I'm ready, I decided I needed a lot of work. This is my new year project : 52 items of clothes in one year.. And these are my stories.
