Hi, I’m Angeline.
I launched my brand in 2024 after more than 16 years designing couture bridal and eveningwear for clients around the world.
A few years ago, I took a leap of faith and walked away from my fashion career as i knew it, sold everything I owned, and moved to Italy with no plan other than to figure out what to do next, to find my purpose.
what i discovered there changed everything.
Immersed in centuries of craftsmanship and surrounded by innovation, I became clear on a vision — a new solution to the problems I’d spent my entire career navigating.
This became Bodice Tech™ — a proprietary process that uses thermoforming and bonding to create a seamless, sculpted foundation in place of traditional cut-and-sew construction.
Today, my work blends innovation with artistry to create body-sculpting couture and a new generation of formalwear solutions, expanding access through my new 3 signature services: 1.Couture, 2. Rental, and 3. Muse: A first-of-its-kind hybrid couture-rental service.
Now, I’m on a mission to revolutionize how we create and experience formalwear.
Design Philosophy
My design philosophy centers on sculpting the body with fluid lines, intentional angles, and contrasting asymmetry.
Drawing my inspiration from nature above all, I use draping, precise tailoring, and my proprietary method of sculpting garments called Bodice Tech, to carve out the form, create highlights & shadows in contrasting textures, and set the stage for movement – the ultimate maker of drama, however subtle or grandiose it may be .
My aim is to create artful pieces with a distinctive edge that empower clients to express their individuality — a transformative effect that goes far beyond apparel.
The Branding
The juxtaposition of the rugged terrain and the serenity that resides there, the contrasting curves and angles, colors and textures in Jackson Hole are deeply rooted in my design aesthetic and lay the foundation of my signature branding - the shape around my logo representing the relationship between the Grand Teton and the Snake River.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. I have a selection of sample gowns that have been designed and made in house as well as bodice foundations in the studio to try on for inspiration, fit, and direction. Because my work is custom, the appointment often evolves beyond trying on samples—we frequently begin draping directly on you once we identify what we’re looking for, using the samples as a starting point though of course, you can order them as they are if you like.
-
I offer 3 services:
Couture — a fully custom bridal or formal design created just for you
Muse Program — a couture–rental hybrid offering a preferred rate with a circular design model
Rental — select one-of-a-kind couture samples available for short-term wear
Styling guidance is part of the experience across all services. I help clients refine silhouettes, proportions, accessories, and overall look so the final design feels cohesive, intentional, and personal.
-
You’ll receive the same level of personalized care and design guidance with both services. With Couture - you own the garment, with Muse - you receive a preferred rate on a couture garment in exchange, the studio gets the garment back for up to a year after you wear it to your event. After a year, you get it back.
-
I make most garment here in Seattle, WA with the exception of some suiting which I have made by incredible tailoring experts in Italy. I use a proprietary construction process called Bodice Tech™, which allows for a seamless, sculpted foundation with improved fit and significantly reduced alterations.
-
Yes, you’re welcome to bring guests, and I recommend no more than 2–3 people due to the size of the studio and also so that the experience is able to evolve productively with your preferences at the forefront. If you’re hoping to bring more, let me know ahead of time and we can plan accordingly.
-
Though the primary purpose of the Muse program is to use the pieces for photoshoots, runway, media, and as showroom samples, rental is considered only if the garment can withstand it, and is determined solely at the studio’s discretion.

I work with design-driven women who value individuality, artistry, and intentional, elevated design. My clients are often attending meaningful events—weddings, galas, celebrations, or milestones and career achievements —and are looking for something distinctive, modern, and cool - thats also beautifully made.
We’ll be a great match in working together if you want: expert fit, sculptural design with an edge, and a collaborative process that results in a piece you cant get anywhere else, thats personal and deeply meaningful to you.
