My Story
Hello! I am Gabriella Clements. A gal from Kansas who moved to NYC to study fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. My search & admiration for beauty started as a young girl. I had the opportunity to nurture my creativity endlessly as a young girl on my family's ranch. Surrounded by wide open spaces, nature, & animals, I was always daydreaming & creating my own stories or worlds to live in. New York City was a great opportunity for me to explore myself & learn who I truly was. I have been blessed to live in Milan & have traveled to places like Vienna & Paris. These experiences & cities mixed with my upbringing on a cattle ranch, has given me a unique perspective as an artist & designer. When I am not sketching, painting, or sewing, I can be found on a horse or sitting by my favorite creek listening to the water (& of course, still daydreaming).
Philosophy
My style is not confined to a certain discipline, rather it flows into everything that I create. ​Although elegant & nostalgic, I enjoy celebrating femininity with a touch of dreaminess.
​
My painting & design themes are one in the same. I have been highly influenced by early Impressionist painters. This can be seen in my choice of layering colors & brush strokes not only in my paintings, but in my combinations of fabrics as well.
​
I have learned that I cannot give one of them up for the other. Rather, fashion ignites my fire to create art, & vice versa. Both art & fashion have the capability to transport you to another place, time, or world. They have the opportunity to connect like-minded & like-hearted individuals. This is my goal. To create beautiful things that hold a spirit of femininity & authenticity. I want everything I create to add beauty, light, & dreaminess to the lives of those that are kind enough to take the time to explore a little bit of my world within.
