BORN OUT OF A DESIRE TO CREATE PIECES OF SIGNIFICANCE,
Delphia marries an appreciation for art with the history of textiles and garment-making.
ABOUT
Rare vintage fabric and buttons are sourced from around the world and are transformed into modern cuts with new stories to tell.
The historical materials are individually crafted into eternal silhouettes, creating a next chapter for museum-quality fabrics that deserve not to be forgotten.
