Behind the Scenes with Designer – Rachel Wilson

My History: It's no secret that I'm a theatre kid through and through. I was practically raised on the stuff! From Disney animated classics to stage plays and ballet- I love it all.

Designer – John Lin

As Coco Chanel says “ In order to be Irreplaceable one must always be Different”. And that is exactly what I’m doing and will always be doing. Indeed she is right, because in this crazy world of fashion the minute you decide to follow, you vanquish. You become the person who they “were” talking about but not the person they “are” talking about. Being different can be scary but exhilarating.
