For five years after leaving the Academy of Art in San Francisco where she took design & construction, Christina didn’t make anything. Anything at all. She was just trying to make money and support herself, and didn’t think she could doing what she loved.  Then one day, incredibly dissatisfied as a real estate agent, she went into her little studio, dug out her old sketch-books from school & sat down. “I had all these things I had drawn, all these ideas.  I was so happy and passionate about it, and I was just really sad – how could I let that go? “

Now, Black Lotus Clothing’s exquisite creations can be seen complimenting an amazing abundance of some of the most admired Belly Dancers worldwide - each piece carefully, lovingly created for them and their specific style. Had Christina never taken that terrifying step and followed her dream, none of the beautiful pieces you see below would have ever existed.

Think about it.
