California dreaming

Los-Angeles-based Dominique Calvillo started Namaste & Crochet four years ago, crocheting gorgeous, dramatic bridal dresses to counter her depression while working to help survivors of human trafficking in South East Asia. “The crochet stitches and repetitive movements gave me peace and my anxiety began to subside,” says Dominique, who now works as a stylist on films and sings with her sisters in a group called the Calvillo Sisters. She’s just released her lovely boho Angel Skirt and Top and Juniper Bralette as patterns so anyone can make them (wedding optional, sunshine mandatory!). www.namasteandcrochet.com
