Giselle Shepatin

"I find myself focusing on the beauty we share, the love we desire to give and receive, the nurturing of what we find important, and the desire to dress for and delight in the whimsey in the world. This is the inspiration behind all my designs. I design for the delight of it and for my love of all of our senses. I am inspired by the fabrics I search for and find, and make patterns according to the drape of the fabric. The process feeds me. Thank you for the opportunity to design for you. It is a great joy I have in this life!"
