Design Inspo: Anything that bridges the gap between the dancefloor and everyday life. I personally love when the pieces in my closet are so versatile that I can quite literally wear them anywhere. The Autonomous Collection is just that. Comfortable silhouettes with statement fabric to be seen in flashing lights, or as subtle details during the day.
Behind the Drop: The first ever Autonomous Pant was created as a gift for a dear friend, Speakerhoney. After one of her shows in Denver, fans were asking her where she got her pants. When she told me, we were like oh shit, should this be my first drop? At the time, I couldn’t believe others would like my designs to the point of going up to someone to ask where they got them from. I remember that feeling to this day.
Launch Insights: Every launch needs a photoshoot. My friend Nate, owner of Neo4ic, graciously let me use his photoshoot studio and camera. Without this, It’s Not Taken wouldn’t have had the successful first launch that it did.
