VINCE Portfolio 2021

JACLYN LEYTUS

My collection is inspired by my renewed sense of gratitude for nature, specifically the ocean, that has brought me serenity and provided me with an escape throughout this past year. Having access to one of the most beautiful beach cities in the world, Malibu, California, is a blessing on any day. Whether I wanted a place to sit on the beach and listen to the waves crash for a couple hours, or give my mind a break and go for a drive along the Pacific Coast Highway, Malibu has served as an escape for me and helped remind me how much there is to appreciate and be grateful for, always.

Although the ocean and the beach seem grand and vast, I have had the chance to look closer and appreciate all the tiny details that make up those larger spaces. My collection is inspired by those details as well. These include the colors and texture of the soft sand, various rock patterns and textures, the vibrant colors of the surrounding plants and succulents, and the ripples in the sand and soft foam the waves leave behind as they ebb and flow.
