donna and toots is named after my eccentric and fashionable grandmother and great aunt. A trip to their numerous walk-in closets filled to the brim with such items as leopard-printed trousers, pink Chanel suits and red vinyl galore could curl anybody’s toes. Together they were trouble, throwing elegant dinner parties and the occasional soiree.

They were a huge impact on a little girl whose imagination had a hard time keeping up with their antics. I have studied fashion design in New York and London, along with having worked in San Francisco for a women’s clothing designer. Since 2002, I have been designing, manufacturing, and retailing my own designs. I love to borrow styles from the past - the 50s and the 60s - but don’t put it past me to throw a modern curve.
