Sans Paroles
Fresh Vintage

A unique line of One of a Kind Wearable Art for Children and Moms, with the environment in mind.

12 years ago I opened 'Ricochet,' a children, and maternity consignment store in San Mateo, with in mind of recycling gently worn clothes. From there I got inspired and took garments apart, and gave it a new look. I have always had a creative mind, and was always making things from findings, but I felt I lacked technique. So I decided to sign up for the Fashion Program at Canada College, where I graduated; first in costume design, then in fashion design.

For about two years I created and designed costumes for several community theatres. Still not having found my real niche, I tried to combine a little of both, and came up with One of a kind Wearable Art for children, with a European taste to it.

I decided to participate in a couple of fashion shows and a few fairs with some of my own designs, where the response was beyond my own expectation, so I decided to continue with it- With still the environment, and green in mind, I have decided to continue designing clothes by using recycled/vintage materials. My inspiration comes from taking garments apart set them on the table and let my mind flow into a new creation.

Sans Paroles, meaning Without Words, is a unique line of garments for children, and adults.

Taking it step by step, I would really like to see this line grow, and be an inspiration to others. For the fashionable parent who like their children to stand out, this is a fun, wearable and comfortable, unique line of clothes, with a European touch to it.
