Thesis Collection Lookbook, Spring 2020

​

Nostalgia: A Retrospective is the culmination of my thesis work, which involved exploring the  foundation, nuances, and history of "nostalgia". This final collection focuses on the key elements of heritage, identity, and the suburban American experience of the 1960s and 1970s. Memories and mementos of my own family's history are pieced together with iconic tactile and visual elements, creating a collection that bridges the gap between past and present to incite both curiosity and connection.
