LADYBIRD BROOCH

Brand Story:

Eugenia Wittson is a New York City-based artist and designer specializing in the curation of accessories, primarily broaches. From the age of eight, she was consumed by the arts and a singular ambition– to become a ballerina. At 17-years-old, she decided to leave home and live amongst five fellow dancers in the vibrant neighborhoods of the West End. Through these experiences, she found camaraderie amidst the rhythm of the city.

Crafting her own costumes with her father became a natural extension of her artistry, which was nurtured from her time working at a local vintage store, Sue Blue. When Sue Blue closed its doors, she turned adversity into opportunity by repurposing flea market  treasures into artisanal pieces that were adored by the likes of many–such as Aerosmith.

Now, with over seventy creations to her name,  Eugenia’s pieces embody the spirit of a dancer who dared to dream in the heart of New York City.

Each piece is one of a kind wearable Art, hand made by Eugenia.
