Jazzy, Urban and Beautiful, G.D.D is a combination of all these things and then some.. The woman that wears G.D.D. it gives her a sense of Confidence if it was none there before. It makes her feel beautiful without someone having to tell her. It reassures the woman whether she is a size 2 or a size 22, that she doesn't have to fit in a box for what SOCIETY feels is a normal size, or beautiful. So Curvy women, Small women and women of any nationality can rock G.D.D. and feel empowered. My mother had suffered from Sarcoma cancer it left a few times but always came back , each time getting worse.  Right before her last surgery I produced my first fashion show in honor of my mother and the fight against sarcoma cancer. So you now I always have yellow in my collection in honor of her and her fight against that ugly disease.  We had a wonderful turnout,  I saw my clothes on the runway and I was reminded once again of why I love fashion.  And that's because we have the platform to make people look and feel beautiful.
