Designer Shabd Simon-Alexander creates limited edition collections based on simple shapes with attention to fabric combinations and compositions. Her approach to working with fabrics draws from minimalist art, quiltmaking, and the folk costume tradition of beginning one dress with the remnants from the last.

Shabd has brought tie-dye to the forefront of fashion, earning the reputation as one of this generation’s leading dye-artists. Her breakthrough collection included a limited edition line of hand dyed accent pieces, inspired by NASA Hubble telescope photos of worlds being born and stars dying. She is based in Brooklyn.
