TRACY WONG. I have always had a fascination with historical eras, especially those that were opulent and exquisite. Sometimes I would imagine myself wearing a straight, fringed dress, swaying to jazz in an art deco hall, other times I’m a very affluent woman living in Shanghai in the 1930s. And in my ultimate fantasy, I see myself walking through the Palace of Versailles, trying to fit my farthingale through the doors.

My aesthetic is deeply rooted from these fascinations of mine and they very much molded me into a romanticist. While keeping it romantic, I strive to design pieces that are feminine and luxurious, but sometimes dark with a slight risqué touch. Visit: http://www.chuichuidesigns.com/

DIERDRE WALLACE. Inspired by living in San Francisco, I wanted to design shoes that were quite unique, works of art and offered accessibility to women to really bare all in deeFind shoes. Conceptually futuristic architecture has always been appealing to me: dynamic angles, bold lines, audacious structural gestures – all frequently reflected in my design aesthetic.  In keeping with the sensibilities of futurism exploring, the desired outcome was incorporate sustainable materials, while providing drop-dead sexy, eco-friendly products.  Working hard to produce the most refined designs I am capable of, as I fanatically search for alternative materials and creative methods.  Each handmade pair of deeFind shoes is constructed in humane working conditions with comparable wages.  deeFind will donate 5% of proceeds to environmental conservation and women’s services.
