Alyssa Vandervelde

I'm Alyssa Ann Vandervelde, a fashion arts student from Ontario, Canada, with a certificate in fashion studies. My profound passion for fashion and all things art has led to my experience in fashion retail and alterations. From these roles, I've gained valuable insights into understanding people's clothing preferences, how they desire the perfect fit, and the significance of garments that become cherished possessions. I aspire to create fashion that resonates deeply with people, becoming enduring pieces that evoke emotion in any setting. Along with this, I strive to create my pieces in the most sustainable way possible, focusing on textiles that would have become waste if not turned into art. Clothing holds immense power in influencing people's emotions, and my goal is to design garments and create art that empowers individuals to feel like the best versions of themselves.
