Finding My Rhythm: Lessons from the Dance of Design

Hey, fashion fam! It's your girl Mandy, checking in from a crisp LA morning. The sun's playing peekaboo behind the clouds, and I'm savoring my first cup of coffee, letting its warmth seep into my bones.

After immersing myself in Schiaparelli's Spring/Summer 2026 collection, "Dancer in the Dark," I've been reflecting on the parallels between dance and design. Daniel Roseberry's creations, with their fluid silhouettes and bold cutouts, embody a delicate balance between structure and freedom.

This concept resonates deeply with me. In design, as in dance, there's a rhythm—a give and take between control and spontaneity. I've realized that my recent setback isn't a misstep but part of the choreography of my growth.

So, I'm embracing the dance. I'm allowing myself to move with the music of creativity, to take risks, and to find joy in the process. After all, it's in the dance that we discover our true selves.

With love and a touch of espresso,

Mandy
