Titled Faye’s Quantum, my Spring 2024 collection is inspired by the concept of mixing Streetwear with Avant Garde designs.
Bold, feminine and abstract shapes paired with denim cargo pants, hooded draped dresses and romantic ruffled gown skirts, explores the imagination of what “Street Garde“ is.
I wanted the collection to feel sexy, strong, masculine, and feminine at the same time. The collection has a vibe to it that showcases the Bishme Cromartie girl that is always on the go and loves to stand out no matter where she is.
