My Labor of Love

Gin Palace is my slow fashion brand focused on handmade garments and accessories upcycled from vintage textiles. Originating as my senior capstone project, I set out to answer the question: “How can we use fashion and soft goods to honor past generations while preserving the planet for future generations?” Because the product is so personal to me, I decided to go all-in with that direction. The brand is inspired by Americana, my ancestors, and the nostalgia that lies in their convergence. The name itself is a play on my own name, and the primary logo is a reference to my mother’s parents.

After graduating, I brought the brand to life and began selling pieces online and at a local vintage store.
