Placard from an exhibition beginning May 30 at the Jepson Center for the Arts, Savannah, Ga. Jordana and her design partner Ashlyn were clowning around for the photo. Don't they look like sisters?
Jordana's leather jacket with hand-cut designs. See her cashmere coat here.
Ashlyn's jersey top with an embroidered design.
Two of their designs as part of the Ruffian Style Mentorship for Ruffian, New York. Check back later for photos of their entire collection for Ruffian, which closed SCAD's 2008 Fashion Show on May 17th.










Oh Tara, Jordana and Ashlyn's collection is just wonderful! They are such talented young ladies. You must be so proud of Jordana.
Please pass on my compliments to the designers - gorgeous!

You know, I have been waiting with baited breathe to see your daughter's designs. Really amazing and wow!
I hope she gets the job she is going for.
Congrats Jordana!

Your daughter and her designs are equally gorgeous. When I see her name I think of the actor Tony Shalhoub. Any relation? Or is that name as common as "Smith" in some parts of the world?

Love that leather jacket and the bottom of the pant.

Incredible talent Tara -- these young women are cutting edge. I love the poster and I love the philosophy!

Oh...my...goodness. The leather jacket is TO DIE FOR.
Gorgeous~ though at the moment I can't think of a single kindergarten-teacher ensemble I own that it would "work with."
Weekend Wear, that's it!
Talented, talented- you must be VERY proud.
