Ashley made this collage from magazines she has collected since the 1980s, writing "the magazines have traveled all over the country with me— boxes and boxes of them. Boxes of magazines are not light-maybe it was me holding onto a part of my past for so many years. Vogue. Elle. Harper's Bazaar. Vanity Fair. I bought them because I was inspired by them. I wanted to design the clothes I saw. I wanted to look like Kate Moss, Cindy Crawford, Elle MacPherson, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, or Helena Christenson. One day I woke up and decided I was ready to let go and share these images that impacted me for so long."
