ADELINE
Stepping Through Time
While my career has taken flight designing immersive environments that captivate and connect, my truest creative pulse beats in the world of fashion and footwear. In September 2024, a lifelong vision took wing with the launch of ADELINE—a high-fashion, avant-garde shoe brand born from a deep desire to transform emotion into wearable art. ADELINE celebrates bold expression, daring silhouettes, and the kind of storytelling that starts from the ground up—one fearless step at a time.
Now, as ADELINE continues to soar, I’m thrilled to preview a project that’s especially close to my heart: The Aviary, a richly layered coffee table book debuting this fall. At the crossroads of ornithology and haute couture, The Aviary features twenty original shoe collections—each inspired by the majestic world of birds. This isn’t just fashion inspired by feathers—it’s a visceral translation of flight, freedom, texture, emotion, and transformation into extraordinary footwear.
Each collection draws from a specific bird species, diving into their symbolism, geographic habitats, migratory patterns, and the raw emotion they stir. From the iridescent elegance of the Purple Gallinule to the haunting power of the Harpy Eagle, every shoe design captures the spirit of its avian muse through a blend of gesture sketching, AI detailing, vector artistry, and digital illustration.
A standout design from each collection is featured here—a preview of the full experience to come. With The Aviary, I invite fashion lovers, birdwatchers, and daydreamers alike to explore a new world where plumage becomes pattern, talons inspire heel forms, and the beauty of nature finds its home on the runway.
This book isn’t just a collection—it’s a celebration of evolution, artistry, and the endless possibilities of flight through the lens of couture footwear.
