HALEY COLTON.

My name is Haley Colton, and I was adopted and raised in Laguna Beach, CA. I attended Savannah College of Art and Design, majored in Fashion Design, and minored in Fashion Marketing.

I have been interested in fashion for as long as I can remember. I would draw my designs on croquis, cut up my clothes to make new ones, and style my friends in outfits. My favorite part about fashion is texture and color. Sensory is a huge part of my fashion experience, and I want to share that. I think that's what truly draws me to be a fashion designer.

My brand (COLTON.) is a nod to who impacted me. I am incredibly proud of where I came from and who raised me. I, unfortunately, lost my biggest supporter, my father, when I was 11 years old. I always wanted to use my family name for business and branding because I wanted him to be a part of my brand.
