From the moment I discovered the “Eloise” books on a shelf in the library where my mom was working as a librarian, I was enthralled with Eloise’s fearless attitude and extravagance. There’s just something about a strong-willed girl strutting confidently in her tutu that has inspired countless girls since the books’ debut in the 1950s. Eloise ignites a spark in us, grown up, but we will always yearn for that mischievous, playful, carefree inner child. That’s the essence of Eloise I aimed to capture in my latest collection — bold fearless feminine extravagance.
