About the Artist: Over the past decade, Van’s journey through fashion has shifted from industrial manufacturing to a more intentional, sustainability-minded practice. Rather than build a low-waste brand, she embraces garments with lived-in histories—mending, upcycling, and altering clothing in a slow, joyful process shaped by wear, chance, and curiosity.
