In addition to couture, M.E.Marie is expanding into ready-to-wear fashion, offering a curated collection that will continue to evolve. Beyond design, Morgan enjoys sharing her craft with others, offering beginner-friendly sewing lessons for those interested in exploring fashion from a hands-on perspective.
