In part two of discussing the film, Dawn Dusk, Donna sits down with designer Chelli Look to explore the intimate relationship between fashion, emotion, and identity. In this moving conversation, Chelli traces her earliest style memories, the power of accessories, and fashion generally. She opens up about Dawn Dusk, the documentary that followed her craft and her healing, and explains how forgiveness transformed chaos into order—on the inside and in her designs. From chain wallets and second-grade confidence to the precision of working with leather, Chelli reveals how clothing and accessories become a visual conversation with ourselves and the world.

The episode goes deeper into creativity as a tool for processing grief, the role of natural light and movement in emotional regulation, and the quiet power of building a brand with intention, community, and care. Chelli shares practical wisdom for designers navigating dark seasons—stay curious, keep creating, and don’t tie your identity to a single medium. With insights on entrepreneurship, material honesty, and fashion as a bridge to connection, this is a must-listen for creators, founders, and anyone who believes style can help us make meaning.
