This Designer Turns Trash' Into Eccentric Bridal Looks
Briefly

Timothy Westbrook's mother encouraged him to break free from gender norms early on, stating, 'Why does he have to be a boy or a girl? Why can't he just be a dancer? This support shaped his perception of gender expression and creativity in fashion.
Westbrook's philosophy is rooted in personal authenticity: 'Clothing can send you anywhere. It can be a billboard for your most authentic and imaginative thoughts.' His designs aim to empower clients to express their true selves.
Creating the T.L. Brooke bridal line, Westbrook utilizes sustainable practices, stating, 'I want to make the world of fashion a more comfortable place, especially for those on their wedding day,' showcasing his dedication to inclusivity and individuality.
