Three words to describe her collection: Elegant, sexy, flowy

Expect a twist on the traditional bridal look with House of NaVera from Junea Howard. “I took inspiration from different seasons…making the bride's dream into reality,” she says. Bold use of colors and patterns are celebrated in Howard’s work, and musical artists and outside objects of art served as inspiration for her design. “I hope people will be amazed, excited, and a little shocked when they see my work,” says Howard, who notes CCAD opened her up to learning from people and other departments of fashion, as well as gaining multiple ways to do different types of techniques.
