Trista is a native Houstonian, living is Seattle, moving to NYC.

I'm a recent graduate of Fashion Design. Up to this point, my career has been Hair Designer, crafting personal color and cut with an edge for a wide variety of clients. Clothing seems like a natural progression to apply these creative abilities of mine. 

My area of interest is within the avant garde, minimalist market. While my program was in fashion design, this was more a vehicle to understand the beauty and artistry of compelling clothing.  My cerebral response to anything black, clean, and odd has led to my obsession with this sector of the fashion world, and I enjoy following these designers and artists with a passion. 

My inspirations:

Black and White Erotic Photography . Antwerp . Surrealism . Dead Trees . Alison Mosshart . Barcodes . Kate Lanphear . Gothic Architecture .  Abandoned Buildings . HR Geiger
