Riveted

The precision and elegance of aviation design

Project Details

Fashion designer Taya Everett invited me to collaborate on two steel handbag concepts for her collection Riveted -a tribute to her childhood spent in airport hangars. The designs draw from aviation and reconstructivist influences, mirroring the collection’s sharp geometry and structural beauty. This was both a creative and personal collaboration -Taya is not only my design partner, but also my girlfriend. The project was featured in the SCAD Atlanta Fashion Show and selected for Vogue’s Digital Runway showcase.

The Riveted Bags are studies in steel, inspired by aircraft fuselages and the brutal elegance of reconstruction.

With special thanks to industrial designer Camden Jones, who designed and helped fabricate the second bag.
