By May 2020, she’d opened her virtual shop and launched her one-woman enterprise. Right now, she’s making everything herself. “As everything's upcycled, I spend a lot of time at thrift stores and estate sales, finding the perfect fabrics to blend together.”
It wasn’t long before her ballooning silhouettes took flight on social media — actor Zaina Miuccia was an early adoptee, sporting Dorry’s head-turning ‘Sophia’ dress with padded pink flip-flops on the streets of New York. (Artist Chloe Wise, musician Lou Doillon, photographer Bella Newman and model Fiffany Luu are also fans.)
For the record, Dorry doesn’t do things by halves. The Sophia babydoll uses almost five yards of vintage fabric. Elsewhere in the collection, there’s the bell-shaped Lola dress, which consumes 18ft of fabric within its ruffle hem (both are currently sold out). “Around 8,000 people asked me about my dress today,” Miuccia wrote on Instagram. “I love how special they make you feel. Everyone notices you, in all the right ways,” the designer agrees — which will be music to the ears of anyone currently dressing their way out of the black hole of human socialization that was 2020.
