BACKGROUND
Summer Titone took an interest in fashion design in 2004 while studying art history at Burlington County College in New Jersey. For the next few years, she taught herself everything about sewing, and researched her family's textile business. She uses this vintage lace, designed by her great grandfather, in most of her designs, to carry on the artistic family tradition. During this time, she sold clothes and messenger bags to Philly boutique stores. In 2006 Summer joined the BCC fashion department to perfect her trade, winning many awards for her unique work, and receiving recognition in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Summer went onto create seasonal lines at boutique stores such as Head Trip Studio in Haddonfield, NJ, The Curiosity Shoppe in Philly, and Woodstock in Cherry Hill, NJ.
Recently, she packed many boxes of fabric along with three sewing machines to head for Hollywood, CA, where she now resides. She will continue to operate her business in New Jersey while developing her west coast clientele.

Hey Summer,
I just checked out your designs. I love your work and think that remodeling old clothes is a great idea. I might just have to take advantage of your services.

I play in Hollywood pretty regularly, but the closest upcoming show as of now is in Venice at a really cool venue called The Talking Stick. It's February 23 at 7pm. Hope you can make it, it'd be great to see you there. I love your designs, and I'm glad to be friends with someone who produces such quality work!
