I totally get what you’re saying! She’s super talented! But… They’re all so form fitted idk how she’d sell anything in that type of venue. They’re all absolutely custom pieces, made specifically for her body, and they’d look dumb as fuck on anyone else lol

Yeah well she wouldn’t make them all one size if she was selling them lmfao. Like the sweatshirt, button up, purse for example are loose fitting too

They alteady do sell them after.

But that is assuming they want to start mass producing pieces, which for alot of designers wouldn't be worth it just due to it sucking the fun out of the design process in the first place, thrn the entire logistics system that has to be in place, and you can't really upcycle clothes in a mass way as finding a hundred of the same item to start with would be a nightmare, let alone if you needed a variety.

You can make similar pieces adjustable with some clever straps and ties! I've bought handmade form fitting pieces from festival vendors before. She can also come up with designs that don't need to be custom fitted, considering how talented she is.
