I have been drooling over these floaty, Asian-inspired dresses for a while now, and my guess is that you will be, too. Today we get a peek into the creative mind that brought us these Eastern wonders. Say hello to Sarah Brasher of Edelweiss by Sarah.
Creativity! Is there a better way to express yourself?!? Being a designer allows me to absorb the beauty of my surroundings and collectively transform them into clothing that reflects me and my life.
I am always learning new sewing techniques and taking on new projects. I love taking new ideas and implementing them in my designs. Each season I find myself spending hours in the photo section of the Manhattan library, digging through old photos and books. The thing I love most about fashion is doing research.
I am able to selectively filter through the fascinating inspiration that is constantly at my fingertips living in New York. From vintage boutiques to independent bookstores I tap into the never-ending stream of creative expression that drives me to push my designs one step further. I love being able to take ideas from the drawing board all the way through to the finished product.
In my ideal world, elegance is mandatory. There was never a moment when I decided to take up fashion design as a career, it just happened naturally. Fashion has always just been a part of who I am. Edelweiss has become my outlet and form of expression; it allows me to share my inspiration and love of design with others.
Enjoy some of my inspirations and photos from the last couple of seasons, as well as a behind-the-scenes video from the Fall 2010 photo shoot!
