NeoCon 2024 with Suzanne

Suzanne took time during Neocon to host a weaving workshop in the Luum showroom at Fulton Market. It was such an unique opportunity to learn the art of weaving from Suzanne. Her new collection was inspired by the jacquard loom. She inspired me and I created my own piece or art!

  • Advice

    “In order to be successful, you have to be an early riser. Get up before the sun and greet it the morning. Do all your studies and work in the morning, because it’s when your mind is its clearest.”

    “Always ask questions. Don’t be afraid to, because it’s how we learn.”

    “Follow your instincts and do the things you want to do. NEVER do things that your mind tells you, you don’t want to do.”

  • “Make sure you know specifically what you need help with when hiring. Otherwise you’ll spend a lifetime hiring people that you love but don’t need.”

  • Any fun facts about yourself?

    Suzanne follows the tradition of dessert first. She says that eating dessert when you’re really hungry is healthier because your body will digest it better!

  • What upcoming trips do you have planned this year?

    “I have a lot of friends all over the place that I like to visit. I went to Milan, Venice and London earlier this year. This month I’ll be in Chicago and India. Later I plan to visit Australia and New Zealand.”
