Amy Claire F/W 2012:

A note from the designer,

"The F/W 2012 Collection was inspired by photographer Edward Weston's nude studies and the literary novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Both human flesh and the aquatic are at the center of the collection. I was first drawn to Weston's photographs of nudes and dunes. The subject, a young woman named Charis who later became his wife, is photographed in a series of images where she falls into random positions after rolling down a sandy dune. Weston had lived and worked in Monterey, where I went to high school, which was once a fishing village for squid. It was this that sparked the connection to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. These two worlds, of underwater life and the human body, are combined into an elegant yet provocative collection."
