Introduction	Here's the story on how DeCONSTRUCTED came to life. Nadine and Cleopatra both live in the world renowned New York City. Everything depicted in entertainment about NYC being exciting, fast paced, and fashion infused is a microcosm of how intense it really is. So with that being said add another 10,000 times more excitement and overt fashion drama during NYC Fashion Week at Bryant Park twice a year. One year Nadine and Cleopatra were willing to do anything to get into a show. So they decided to create their own fashion line to hopefully fool the unsuspecting interns from the fashion houses that receives all of the RSVP requests. Unfortunately nobody granted an invite to a show but what did happen was the birth of DeCONSTRUCTED. After being frequently asked, "omg! where did you GET that?" by strangers and friends alike, a light bulb went off. Nadine and Cleopatra began to realize maybe they have a knack for fashion, specifically vintage fashion. It's one thing to follow trends and recreate store front spoon fed mannequin windows. But to add buttons, shorten hemlines, or severely DeConstuct a vintage garment into modern day fashionable piece of art, now that takes skill.
