As a young woman it was my 'secret' dream to be an avant garde fashion designer. I did not know exactly what that meant....I just knew that what I saw in fashion that was really "out there" was what I wanted to do. For many reasons, I did not feel my dreams were attainable. I thought this dream of mine was so unattainable that I did not share with anyone, even myself really, until recently. My dreams have since grown and changed and I now see them as fully attainable. While this link is more Haute Couture, I see it and Avant Garde Fashion in general as a great inspiration and reminder for me to fully be my creative self. A message to those whom are intimidated by their own ambitions and dreams... "Push through your fears and really jump into your dreams. Your fears are not real, your dreams can be."
