If you need me today, I’ll be buried under a mountain of tablecloths, editing reel, and a cup of coffee that has probably gone cold twice already.

The studio is currently a beautiful mess of crochet, waistbands, and try-on because this Thursday’s drop is officially happening, and we are putting the final touches on every single piece. I will be taking the last photos and finalizing the names for the upcoming ladies!... and let me tell you—these pieces look incredible in the California sun.

I’m keeping it short today so I can get back to the sewing machine and the editing desk, but I wanted to pop in and say thank you for all the love you have shown HWA!

Set your alarms for Thursday. You won't want to miss this one.

Back to work I go!

I had to completely push the drop back three weeks, rip out the seams, and start from scratch. From a stubborn waistband to a wrap-tie skirt I’m completely obsessed with—here is the chaotic, behind-the-scenes story of how the Yo-Yo Collection almost broke me (and why it was worth every ripped stitch).
