Tornados and Trinkets as a brand is all about self-expression and evolution of style, each design begins with my ‘dream’ wardrobe in mind, and what I would want to style and restyle into different looks. Everything I design I think of how it could be worn, who will wear it and how. I create with the idea of being inclusive as well as creating dream accessories.

The harness is meant to give the look of a spine something that is seen a lot in darker aesthetics but softened by the bows and choice of fabrics creating a striking accessory that can be placed in many different fashion styles.
