Are You a Fashion Designer

July 14, 2008 at 3:26 am · Filed under personal

Models facing forward are wearing my designsduring the 2006 "Best Of Brooklyn' Fashion Showcase

Yes, I am by profession a fashion designer.. I have designed for several local labels, but chose t ostay away from the design circuit while working on the artist mosaic project. i am actually making my portfolio available via an opensource license.

Lately though I am not as excited by fabric and fashion as I usually am. I meet so many people in need that a hemline seems trivial. Currently I am working on a better method of show-casing and sale

Don’t get me wrong, I am not going to throw away, college and years of apprenticeship and experience. I am transferring my knowledge and skill into other arena. I am working on a design merchandise concept to, with some other designers, raise money for the local fashion sector but forthe next two years while my son finishes high schooll it is not onthe front burner!

I may consider licensing, and i will be adding some of the signature pieces to DeMarketplace
