Rose Kennedy Manhart

My designs are influenced greatly by my fascination with textile manipulation, adding or taking away the value in a fabric and creating something new in the process. I am drawn to the wildness and complexity of nature and its colors and textures, which often links to the textiles I incorporate into my designs. My design aesthetic is wearable, slouchy streetwear with unique details, which make them mine. The methods of design I use are practical, and through the exploration of textiles, ideas are able to grow and develop further in the process.
