We believe that everyone in their life comes across new opportunities and instead of shying away from them, we want to empower people to take on new opportunities with confidence. In our collection, we showcase how seemingly ordinary items like flowers, a door and a key can have a deeper meaning. We hope you walk away feeling inspired and encouraged. By buying this product, you are creating new opportunities for the designer(s) that created them by helping them go to college.
Your hard work represents a seed you sew, and as a flower blooms it bears the fruits of your labor. Blossom into the person you're destined to become.
When the sun rises in nature, it allows new opportunities for things to grow and flourish. As the sun beams, it can allow things to be seen that couldn't before, allowing new things to prosper.
With new opportunities comes growth. It’s like when you are growing a
garden, plants grow from a seed. We will also grow from the seeds planted for and within us.

I love that we all got together and made this for everyone. This has been the so much fun and the best year ever. We came up with the team name together because we're the new students who are doing this for Merit - something new and better.

This collection means a lot to me because I had the opportunity to share my ideas and create different clothing with my group. I learned about the impact of color and how it affects people's emotions.

What does this collection mean to you?
Our creative process was to brainstorm something, that was giving an opportunity to be something better like a seed growing and blooming it became something better. I learned that every idea matters and even if everyone does not agree with the idea we still take the idea to thought.
