Hello! My name is Ruby Ottem, and I’m a senior fashion student at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I design elevated ready-to-wear that focuses on flattering silhouettes, thoughtful color, and pieces that bring confidence to the wearer. My work is heavily influenced by music and emotion—I love translating a feeling into shape, texture, and movement. I’m originally from Minnesota, and I got into fashion after realizing how much clothing helped me build my own confidence; now I hope to create that same experience for others. I’m a very hands-on designer who enjoys draping, collaging, experimenting, and recently exploring knitwear. My long-term goal is to build my own brand centered around storytelling, intentional design, and sustainability.
