STRETCH COUTURE
Where Fashion Meets Imagination

Stretch Couture was established in 2001
in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
​They say "Virginia is for Lovers" and I say
​"Virginia is for Lovers ​of FASHION!"

​Why fit in when you can stand out?
Why buy clothes that just don't fit?
Stretch Couture was born out of necessity because as a plus-sized young adult I struggled to find formal wear, swimwear, and even Halloween costumes.

At 19 years old I started mending, altering and sewing my own clothing with only the skills learned in a 7th grade Home Economics Sewing Class. I started my business by creating fashion for my family and friends.
During my career I studied Couture Fashion Design with Marc Jacobs. Now my passion is to teach others the lost art of sewing and to cultivate the talent of aspiring fashion designers.

​On April 4, 2022 I launched Sustainabili-T, a lifestyle brand focused on sustainable fashion and self-love. I currently make sustainable items and host DIY workshops to show people how to upcycle and mend old clothing. I will be launching a manufactured line of sustainable clothing for Plus Sized Women and items for pets. I also host events centered on wellness and self-care because sustainability is not just environmental, it’s emotional. In 2022 I also partnered with one of my best friends to open Dream Shape Body Contouring, a spa that focuses on weight loss and wellness.
