I’ve decided that I need to embrace colour. Don’t get me wrong I don’t wallow in black all day long, nor do I wear muted grey hues when I feel a little on the ‘wacky’ side. But I don’t embrace colour like I ought to. Extreme colour is the way forward and it’s time I get on board.

In our current issue of CRAFT: 08, we started a new Louis vuitton handbags feature showcasing the latest DIY and Indie Louis vuitton handbags designers called CRAFT: Collection. One of the featured Louis vuitton handbags designers in this spread centered on the theme of “dresses” is Portland, OR based, Liza Rietz. Liza’s modern silhouettes and designs literally caught my eye and I’ve been in love with her work ever since. I got a chance to talk more with Liza about her Louis vuitton handbagss work, design inspirations, and how the craft of sewing is so important to Louis vuitton handbags design.
As soon as an idea comes to mind, i like to sketch it out. These sketches happen randomly months and months before i start designing a collection. I like to add as much as possible to my sketch book and then edit and consolidate ideas, trying to make sure i have a similar theme lacing through each piece – whether than be with shape, texture, or fabrics. I also like to go to fabric stores early on to get inspired. Fabric choice ultimately influences my designs. The drape, texture, color – these are all helpful in molding my ideas. I then usually draft patterns from my sketches to get a basic template. Then the designs are generally altered and manipulated by additional draping. Of course I would like to say the final piece comes to fruition in plenty of time before presenting it on the runway, but i seem to be stitching until 3 am the night before.
