Garment Inspiration
Chavah’s design is inspired by the Bay of Fundy tides, which rise and fall higher than anywhere else in the world; from crashing waves to a bare ocean floor. Summers on Deer Island shaped her love for those contrasts, from high tide adventures to low tide discoveries. Her gown reflects that story with an overskirt that transforms into a second look: high tide and low tide. It speaks to life’s highs and lows, showing that both are beautiful.
