Apresentando Jessica Yung, nossa principal colaboradora aqui em NY:

Formada em psicologia na Boston University, logo percebi que era na verdade uma amante da moda. Fui aceita na School of Fashion Design em Boston aonde aprendi a desenhar, modelar e o mais difícil, costurar. Um ano depois, voltei para São Paulo e trabalhei em uma marca como assistente de estilista e acredito que foi lá a minha maior escola. Após seis meses observando e absorvendo todo o aprendizado possível, comecei minha própria marca junto com minha sócia e amiga. Três anos depois, vim realizar um sonho de morar em NY e estudar na faculdade dos grandes estilistas a Parsons The New School of Design. Hoje estudo, administro minha marca e escrevo um pouco de tudo que amo aqui no 917 Diaries. Espero que gostem!

Presenting Jessica Yung, our main contributor here in NY:

Having graduated with a psychology major from Boston University, I soon realized that my real passion was for fashion. Soon after graduation, I was accepted at The School of Fashion Design in Boston, where I learned how to draw, pattern-make, and the hardest of all, sew. One year later, I moved back to São Paulo and worked for a wholesale brand as assistant designer. I believe this was the harshest school of all. Six months later, after soaking all the knowledge I could from my job, I started my own clothing brand with my partner and friend. Three years later, I moved to NY to fulfil my lifetime dream of living in the city and study in one of the world’s most recognized fashion school, Parsons The New School of Design. Today I am a student, manage my brand, and write a little about everything that I love here at 917 Diaries. Hope you enjoy it!
