Thanks for providing an outlet for creative people to audition for Fashion Star on this day May 16, 2012.
I'm a member of the largest population consisting of the baby-boomers…retired, single and 66 years young. My age is concealed by my good genes and the clothes I design for my athletic frame. I'm self taught from the age of 9 years when I designed and made clothes on my deceased grandmother's treadle machine that kept breaking thread every 5 stitches. I kept on and designed my wedding dress and dresses for others as well as girls who competed in contests and pagents. When my 3 sons were born, I designed and made half of their clothes as well as my husband's suits for work. My flare for design ranges from the fun and sassy to the drop-dead glam and is no doubt enhanced by my hobby as an artist that has also been with me from a young age.
As the next Fashion Star, I would most certainly inspire young and old alike to keep following your passion even when life sometimes gets in the way.
Having the opportunity to be on fashion star would make me forever grateful.
I wouldn't say that I always knew that being a fashion designer was what I wanted to be, but there were definitely signs that it would most likely become my destiny and that I had a gift. Valentino said you have to be born with fashion. he always knew he wanted to do this. Always. and I realized that I was born with it when I remembered, I was 5, and I would get distracted by the mannequins and alter the clothes on the mannequins to make them look better
I would tie or tuck or change something. It was the only thing that calmed me, that and looking at the stars.
I also remember spending a lot of time drawing people but my favorite part about drawing them was their clothes. Back then I didn't think much of it until I got older and realized I had a calling. It was then I auditioned for the fashion design academy at my high school which is a college level fashion design class and was one of the 50 that made it in out of a couple hundred. After that I took fashion marketing. I excelled in both because my designs and ideas were innovative and inventive. Or so I was told. I could never make a piece of clothing that has already been out there. It has to be something that no one has seen yet. I love design, placement, colors, and am amazing with picking fabric combinations. I drew up floor plans for my dream store from every last detail to what the mannequins look like in the front window to marketing ideas to events. And when people saw them they thought those would be amazing plans and told me I had a gift.
I want to see my designs on the red carpet and see people stunning. It takes me seconds to come up with a design because all good art comes from the heart. I have visions and I get them down like magic. I make great designs and have great ideas because I am a great listener. I know what people want as well as what my heart tells me to do. Seeing people walk around wearing art and what it says about who they are or what they're feeling, where they're going. Artist and art tells stories. I want to tell new ones.
I think I love fashion and Im able to be in it to win it

Hello, I am truly gifted…I have been sewing since I was 8 year old…I am self taught in every aspect of the design process, from imagination to drawing, to pattern drafting and draping. I am an extremely skilled sewer. My skills are impeccable. I am modern, unique and I sell the clothes off my back…I also paint on leather and fabric. I have definite attributes that define my cutting edge style…I also make leather tall boot moccasins hand made and painted…I make handbags, and belts…all my designs are unique and unlike anything I ever see in stores…I am classy with a splash of avante-guard. I have been quietly reshaping the wardrobes of ladies in my town of for the last 40 years. I have an impressive portfolio of designs that will rock the fashion world… I am extremely marketable
despite my one of a kind designs that have been my total focus for all these years. I am ready to show the world garments that are new, fresh and totally irresistible. I deserve to be showcased to the world on "Fashion Star". I have devoted my entire life to fashion design.
My name is Taylor, im am currently enrolled at The Art Institute, studying fashion desingn. Im loving my experience there. Even still being a student i truly believe that i can bring great new looks to this show. Fashion has been a part of me as long as i can remember, when i was a child i loved making my own headbands and hand sewing beads on to my clothes, to make them beautiful. I love what fabrics can do just by sewing them in different ways, what you can turn fabric into amazes me. I would describe my personal style is very fresh, trendy, young, and eye catching. I believe my eye for style is very unique and creative. I would be honored and thrilled to have a spot on this show. Thank You!
I'll try to re post this shorter since my last comment seems to still be awaiting moderation. Valentino said you have to be born with fashion. he always knew he wanted to do this. Always. and I realized that I was born with it when I remembered, I was 5, and i would get distracted by the mannequins and alter the clothes on the mannequins to make them look better

ear Sir or Madame,
My name is Techin Kraikhajornkitti (please call me Techin). Currently, I'm interning with Rag & Bone New York, working on the next collection, and also working 3 days a week at Fezbez International New York City. Fezbez works with major factories in Asia (14 brands in all) putting their collections together. My two bosses are constantly in Asia and I am part of the NYC consultant team that feeds them information, samples, and color stories from their New York Office. Our lines are both casual and dress-up to the level of contemporary. The bulk of our business is in Thailand and Indonesia, but we also have accounts in China and Tokyo. I also have 4 months experience in interning with Diane Von Furstenberg (NYC) 2+ years experience in working with F-fashion Thailand (Fashion TV in Thailand) as a women’s wear fashion designer. Our merchandise is considered edgy. I have a bachelor’s degree in Thailand in fashion design, and I received many fashion awards menswear and women's wear also was an honored student during my four years in college. My entire life revolves around fashion.
I would love to be in NBC's fashion star. I am very familiar with your shows. I’ve learned much about your show and try to keep updated on what’s going on at Fashion Star , which has become one of the most favorite show. Unlike what I have perceived of other show, your show is fresh and concerned about fashion business.
My current boss compliments me on “what I bring to the table everyday” in new ideas for clients and design. If there is an opening, I can offer you my four years of fashion experience in college, three substantial jobs in the fashion business under my belt, and a true love for what I do.
My American Friends call me a workaholic, but it’s honestly just that I’m so passionate about fashion.
Hello I’m 23 years old and I’ve been designing since I was in the sixth grade. I’ve came up with design’s to escape life problems but I realize that there was something special about myself. Never did I know that when the years would pass I would see my design on anybody else. Watching video and fashion shows I couldn’t believe my eyes. As I got older I would still see my design on celebrities prior to me designing them. I strongly feel I’m ahead of the fashion trend. This has been going on for more than a decade I don’t see myself doing anything else in my life. My style is different I go into character. Every day is a fashion show and the world is my runway. but there more when I come up with design for the everyday woman all sharp and sizes what’s going to make them look amazing on them. for years I’ve been fighting with myself because I have a problem going into a store with an idea for an outfit thinking I’m going to find it but never fail that I don’t. Weeks would pass ill with a different idea to find the old one lo crazy I know. I would do a great deal in the fashion world. If fashion star give me a chance my dreams would become a reality. I’ve been watching the show when the judges bid on the one of the garment would already know who going to buy the garment that’s come down the runway. So what I’m saying is that I have a great eye for fashion, fabric, color, mixing print and patterns. I also want to invent a color fashion is my life and I want everyone to feel how I feel when I get dress like a super star because everyone is and being fabulous come from within. Its 2012 and the fashion world has evolve tremendously which is amazing to me. It’s my time to shine as well for everyone who going to wear my garment.
I had a phone interview set up. Somehow we did not connect. I sent you two emails reguesting to reschedule. I would love to share my knowledge of fashion and design with you. I have tons experience in design and retail clothing. I would love to hear from you again. Florence!
I am a successful and resourceful woman-owned small business owner and mother of 3 wonderful kids. I have a design background and worked as a fashion designer and merchandiser during the 80's and 90's for major apparel manufacturers designing for and working with major retail and catalog buyers. I allow the fabrication to speak in very vintage, elegant, and creative designs– my clothes are very fashion forward but fit and flatter all figure sizes and shapes. I have extensive production experience in the US and China. My age group -baby boomers- is the largest target market in the country with the greatest purchasing power at retail. I can add an interesting, inspirational and diverse aspect to your line up of design talent for 2012.
What is the secret to revolutionizing ones life at any age? Love and embrace every success and defeat as part of the process of becoming the best you can be.
My name is Jarrod "Jshad" McClain, I am 32, from New Orleans, La and have a clothing line called Article 15 LLC, and I am the next Fashion Star! I have been designing clothes since 2003 when i came home from a 1year tour in Iraq where i gained my inspiration to pursue designing. My line has been worn by celebs in nationally publicized magazines(Sister2Sister), concerts(Essence Festival), and videos(Cupid "Do my Ladys Run This Party"… Aired on BET 106&Park) to name a few. I have done multiple fashion shows along the south coast. I never mass produced any of my clothing because I am the sole provider for my 6 person family and really can't afford it. I have been waiting for a show like Fashion Star to be able to show my designs to the world. To get a chance to do so would be a dream come true and opportunity that I would not take lightly.
Hello:I am the founder of:Wearable Arts and Designs.I make fashion accessories that are different and unique. I've been in business for four years. I have been making my own patterns and designs for the past fifteen years.I have no college education,all that I know about fashion I learned on my own. Do to my passion for fashion.
Thank you: WA&D
My parents told me that fashion was not a real career and that I needed to find something else. I didn't listen to them. I decided to go to fashion school and earned my business degree 15 years ago. I designed my own dresses, home decor, and jewelry throughout school. I followed my heart and worked for Nordstrom and now Saks by helping people dress and teaching fashion daily. I love what I do and am very passionate about the Saks Fifth Avenue brand. I would love a chance to show my expertise in fashion and design.

Fashion it's in my blood. Please get back to me to show u more of me. Thank you and hope u guys can make my dream a reality.
If wishes were horses, men would ride !!
Yes ..I want to be on fashion star cause I feel everyone is beautiful but you just don't know. I feel I understand how colors blend, what mixes and matches and make someone look stunning ! I have taken several of my friends shopping and helped them put dresses together. I feel there is a gap still out in terms of fashion and average person. All those beautiful clothes are made either thinking of models or the rich class leaving a person like me out.I want to help all those women realize how pretty they look if something was designed keeping the average person in mind.
I have no degree in fashion but I have the eyes to see colors and shapes and I can relate with millions of women who want to be dressed in a classic yet cost effective manner.
I have no degree in fashion and no prior experience. My dad own a small shop in Kathmandu where he sells cloth ,so I understand material .I don't sew but I know shape , size , color and cloth !
Valentino said you have to be born with fashion. he always knew he wanted to do this. Always. and I realized that I was born with it when I remembered, I was 5, and i would get distracted by the mannequins and alter the clothes on the mannequins to make them look better
I would tie or tuck or change something
it was the only thing that calmed me
that and looking at the stars

It takes me seconds to come up with a design because all good art comes from the heart. I have visions and I get them down like magic. I see designers everyday designing things I've already seen and it kills me and I feel like I am wasting my gift by not putting myself out there. I am trying to start a fashion company with a partner so that's a first step. I just need the right person or people to notice me. I also want to be successful at what I love so that in the near future with my successes I can help people in need. I want to see hope in peoples eyes and start an organization to do that where I would make sure what it was doing for people. I make great designs and have great ideas because I am a great listener. I know what people want as well as what my heart tells me to do. Seeing people walk around wearing art and what it says about who they are or what they're feeling, where they're going.

I would love the opportunity to be on Fashionstar, I draw a lot of different fashion clothing, I love making all kinds of different clothes for people, I have an eye for fashion and love it. I have no experience in the fashion industry but would love to start with FashionStar.
I would love to fulfill huge dream of mine to have my fashion line in stores and having people buying it.
I'm a first generation Polish woman whose family has been through rough parts of history for their offspring to create beauty in a world that is not always beautiful. I literally have dreamt of fashion designs since I was a child but was never formally taught the art of design. My family thought it best that school and money/time not be wasted on arts because " it would be tough to find a job and support yourself." I've been a Realtor and Retail Manager and can tell you that I still fall asleep dreaming of fascinating designs. I may not have the technical skills to sew, pattern or sketch but the passion is definitely there. If I have an ounce of passion to design as my family did to survive then I would be lazy or a disgrace not to try. I always said that if I started a fashion line it would be in honor of both of my grandmothers Helena Helena. I hope I can make them proud.
Hi my name is Deyonte'. I am a Fashion Designer and I'm ready to take my brand to the next level. I'm an innovator, my style is fresh and my gift is making anything look better. With this show the world will be able to see my talent and it will give me a chance to expand my business.
i have been in the fashion world for all of my working years. i have owned an alteration shop. mens & womens clothing and custom made anything. from gowns to dresses. jackets. blouses. anything that is made of fabric. I love color and texture . I understand the different fabrications and how they work. i understand different bodies and what works on them. i love the fashion world. i would love to share my love and knowledge of fashion with Fashion Star.
Hello, I’m a Fashion Diva and the next Fashion Star. I love mixing color, patterns/shapes, and materials for my line. I have a very creative mind and I love to bring my ideas to life. I have been designing and creating clothing and shoes for almost two years now. Although that’s not a very long time, I get a lot of custom designs requests in the Los Angles area. I enjoy sketching, sewing, and love love seeing my clients super excited for their original custom clothing and accessories. It would be an honor to get expert advice from the mentors and buys on the show. It would also be a dream come true to have my designs bought by my favorite stores.-Thank You!!
Wish all you guys the best of luck!!!
I would love the opportunity to be a part of NBC's 'Fashion Star'- I am a self taught pattern maker and custom clothing designer- what intrigues me most about this program versus many of the other 'designer' shows is the way that the mentors and the buyers encourage each designer to be competitive not with the other designers, but with themselves, which inherently makes you an all around more competitive, stronger designer. I am also drawn to pace of this series, it is totally in sync with my current full time working pace. Because I work for myself, I am not only responsible for the design aspects of my line, but the production end of it as well, which when I am swamped with orders, I don't have nearly as much time to spend with the creative process. I would love the opportunity to work with and learn from people who are so knowledgeable in their field, and really be able to push myself creatively, while making beautiful, marketable garments.
Even if I am not chosen, I am glad to know that so many people are working hard to realize their goals and potential, this helps me to work harder for myself.

Hello,
I thought long and hard about what to write. Well, I am a 40 something year old woman with 2 wonderful college sons. While I can't boast of attending the best or any fashion designing school, my love for fashion was birth out of a very difficult time in my life.. as a young mother of 2 and 1 who was recently faced with brutal divorce. During these tumultuous times, I was through a lot of depressing moments with hardly any money to take care of my children. I remember back then, my children and I would always act out..Fashion shows, putting the blouses, pats and whatever we could get our hands on t make ourselves feel glamorous… Often times, this worked as a deterrent for the pain I felt. What was neat about it was that those were times I was highly elated… my feelings soared high. And I concluded that every woman is a princess… regardless of what our back drop story is. Since then, I have designed many of the dresses I wear and thank goodness, I have a tailor who helps to being my designs to life. I have also had many people stop e to find out where I purchased my clothes.. as I strictly design for myself. I have been tempted to try this on my own but know that such venture requires great amount of funds.. not only that mentors who are willing to take a old "brod" like myself and mentor me through the system. Watching this season makes me realize that it is not too late for me.. and that I can still fulfill my goal of becoming a fashion designer to be reckon with.
Choosing me will not only "make a fashion statement" but will tell an incredible story of ashes to beauty… it will also let others like me know that dreams can come true, even at a later age. My sons are now 21 and 18 and I know they cannot wait for me to fulfill my dream.
If given the chance and the opportunity which I know this show is able to… I intend to run with it. What a terrific thing to see when I can finally tell people they can purchase some of my designs at the stores featured.
Thank you.
Hello.. My name is Sung Min Shim, I've been a fashion designer for 15 years now and currently working as a head designer for a contemporary brand in NY. I have an experience for launching an unique brand for niche markets and have worked for mass market as a brand creative director back home in Korea.. I also had great honor to be posted on WWD as a upcoming designer for 2006…I completely understand what women want to wear and how to make them beautiful~ My experience not only offers a sophisticated taste but also an ability to make marketable fashion products… I also believe I have an eye for a detail and innovative design skill are up most important characteristics in our industry. It would be a greatest challenge for me to compete as a Fashion Star..and to be able to create my own brand. I'll deeply appreciate this opportunity to be able to shine as a STAR..
Wow I don't have the money nor the resourses to put together a Fashion Star show. But I sure do have the right tools,respect,motivation,courage and marvelous designs that will accomadate to the show. What seperates me from others is how I hold my pencil, how I put different textures together,and how my mind works inside out from under to left to right to the top lol. however im praying for a chance to show whats so unique about me. I am not chasing a dream, my dream is chasing me and with Fashion Star opportunity only lets me know my dream Is catching up with me and Im hoping to be swallowed up by it. Ive accomplished many short term goals to get to this point in my life.
I have models that would love the opportunity to do Fashion Stars please keep me updated on how to audition.
Thanks
I have only been able to see two of the broadcasts of the show. From what I have seen, I can not believe these people who call themselves designers.
I have a BS in fashion merchandising; as well as an Associates in fashion design. My degrees are from when you had to draft patterns by yourself, not by computer. I have never been strong in Illustration. What I lack in that area, I more than make up for in execution. I earned my degrees in Chicago. I reside in Dallas now. I attempted to go back to school to learn the computer drafting and illustration, but I was unimpressed by the Art Institute in Dallas. The students' portfolios looked amazing, however, the execution on the runway was very disappointing.
I was looking for a program with a bachelors in the dallas area in design. I was only able to find two year programs, which I already have that degree.
I am amazed at this show having these people using other people to draft their patterns and sew their designs.
I know how to draft patterns the old fashion way; and I sew all of my own designs. My grandfather was a tailor. I currently have two machines he left me, commercial, and a blind hemmer, two sergers, and three Vikings. I have the 4d embroidery. I currently use denim jackets and turn them into wearable art. I have 31 completed. I am working on four others as we'll.
I have held management positions in retail as well as alterations manager in bridal. Retail is not fun for me anymore. There is no real customer service, just leaches selling anything to make a buck. The merchandising is weak as well, at least in Dallas. I would love to have the opportunity to utilize all of my skills over the years. I guarantee that my designs will not be oversimplified or extremist "been there seen that." I design with the average women in mind to flatter the figure and create interest. I often let fabric inspire my designs. I also use my dress forms to drape designs in muslin; then draft into flat pattern. I would really like to shows what I have designed over the years. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
I am writing to inquire if you know who I could talk to or what is the process to be considered for the next season of fashion star? I have tried to find information myself and all that is coming up is your information from last year. I am a fashion designer from Arkansas that is very interested in taking myself to the next level. I feel that the show Fashion Star would assist me in making me passion for fashion my reality.
I am NBC's next Fashion Star!!!
my name is Diana Deveereaux Los Angeles,CA
I have been a Fashion Designer since 1982 I have met and designed for some major celebrities, I have done countless fashion shows, I have done live fashion shows on tv and have been featured in many magazines and I have worked in the fashion industry for many years and I have an outstanding updated portfolio to prove it! I know that I would be a great fit for the show, because I have real experience and real talent! I will give you real glamourous wearable designs for every day people!

Hello I'm 23 years old I've been designing snice I was in the sixth grade. I've came up with design to escape life problems but I realize that their was something special about myself. Never did I know that when the years would pass I would see my my design on anybody else. Watching video an fashion show I couldn't believe my eyes. As I got older I would still see others of my design on celebrities prior to me designing them. I strongly feel I'm ahead of the fashion trend. This has been going on more then a decade I donKt see myself doing anything else in my life. My style is very different I go into character. Everyday is a fashion show and the world is my runway. But there more when I come up with idea for the everyday woman all sharp an sizes what's going to make them look Amazing on them. For years I've been fighting with myself because I have a problem going into a store with an idea for an outfit thinking I'm going to find it but it never fail that I'm not. Weeks would pass Ill go with a different idea to find the old idea lol crazy I know. I would do a great deal in the fashion world.If fashion star give me a chance my dreams would become a reality. I've been watching the show when the judges bid I would already know who they going to buy from the garment that's come down the runway. So what I'm saying is I have a great eye for fashion, fabric, color, mixing print and patterns. I also want to invent a color lol fashion is my life and I want everyone to feel how I feel when I get dress like a super star because everybody is and being fabulous come from with in. Its 2012 an the fashion world has evolve tremendously wish is amazing to me. Its my time to shine s well everyone else.
I am a huge fan of Fashion Star and would love to be apart of the next season. I have design experienced in mass market both NYC and LA. I love to start my own line one day. This would be a great opportunity.

Hey my name is chris and I'm 23yrs old and I have been designing for almost 10yrs i attended the art instatute of new york.
…I have had pelnty shows with different designers.
..Also have had 7 fashion shows of my own which I've collaborated with many different designers.
. I think u should pick me cuz of the diversity that I bring and also the karisma and my different sense of style which is sassy classy but yet very different and abstract. I would live to be in the next available season. that will be a dream come true, not only for me but for my family … Thank you for your time

What I love about Fashion Star is how you cut out the middleman and get right to the point! Hey, if you got talent…Let's make it happen! I am a designer that has dressed a few celebrities, VIP for the Inaugural Ball and my designs has graced catwalks in New York City during fashion week along with having a small boutique. So…What's missing??? I'm a one woman team. I need a team to support my vision so I can present my line to stores that has consumer buying power. I always say, a person's track record is a strong indicator of his/her capabilities.;-)

Hello!!! My name is Monique Marwani, I'm 38 years old, I've LOVED fashion for as long as I remember!!! It has been my life's work and deepest passion!!! When asked by my second grade teacher," what I wanted to be when I grew up?" My reply was "a FASHION DESIGNER" I LOUDLY & CONFIDENTLY exclaimed!!! All of my classmates laughed, as they did years later as I toted fashion magazines instead of schoolbooks , as they did when I proudly proclaimed I would be applying to college to study FASHION DESIGN!!! Deep down they and I knew a life in the fashion business was for me!!! Fast forward almost 25 years later, and my dreams have pretty much come true!!! I've had a WONDERFUL career in the fashion industry as a model, specialty boutique buyer, stylist,/makeup artist, and boutique owner. My dreams came to a sudden halt in 2005, at the age of 31, I was diagnosed w/life threatening cervical cancer….my diagnosis and treatment led to the devastating loss of my life's dream of owning a boutique. Here we are 7 years later and I am just coming out of a whirlwind experience that almost took my life. I am now trying to put the pieces of my life back together, working on living my "NEW" normal, and trying to find where I "FIT" in the fashion industry. I now know that LIVING out my life's dreams to the fullest IS A PRIORITY!!! I think this experience would be EXACTLY what I need to restore my confidence and help me move forward w/my "NEW" life in my VERY "NEW" skin!! Participating as one of the chosen designers on FASHION STAR would allow me to lead by example, showing other "survivors" of ANY trial, tribulation, devastating circumstance, or diagnosis that one CAN live through such terribleness situations, come out "NEW, DIFFERENT, BIGGER, BETTER, & BRIGHTER" and use their experience as a launch pad, second chance to FEARLESSLY PUSH FORWARD, REACH FOR THE STARS, and LIVE THE LIFE and BE the person they've always dreamed of!!!
Hello….My name is Christian Allana,standing at 4"11, but my talent is taller than the than you could ever imagine. I am 23 years young, and a 2012 graduating senior at SCAD, Atlanta. I have a unique and creative eye for the fashion industry! I have been designing for about 18 years, which is most of my life. I have only been sewing 7 years. I considered myself to be a multi-tasker because I take great pride in sketching, draping, pattern-making and more. I have made amazingly over-the-top garments which have won me several awards and scholarships. There are so many things that surround me in the south that has helped me to create beautiful garments. I want to be more than a brand…I want to be a lifestyle. I would be so honored to be chosen to be a contestant on Fashion Star. This would be a wonderful experience for me to broaden my talent to the world. recognized
I should be on fashion star because. Fashion is my passion. And all I need is one door to open to show the talent God blessed me with. A eye for fashion. It would be and honor just to grace the stage once with people that love to do what I love to do.And fashion design.

I am a fashion designer and have my own line, i have been manufacturing and designing private labels for forever 21 for the past 3 years and I am ready to re introduce my line main stream.. way too formal for what hippie chick couture is and its true essence. get a true feel of my purpose w fashion !! cheeer
its about embodying our philosophy (b as you are) and not just the aesthetic. its a movement-let me move you!!!
I moved from NY to Dallas . I've always done shows in NY and have a great following in NY trying to do this business on my own with the capital to fund my dream is very hard. Being on the show will allow me to gain that exposure i need to start on the right foot. I make clothes for real women that are looking to feel rich without having to spend their entire paycheck on one dress. my customer does keep a steady job and is current with todays trend. the name of my clothing line is Le'Venity you can look it up. Many of my clients are saying that i need to try out for the next season and it will definitely be a dream to be on that show cause it fits exactly what I am looking for and i believe my aesthetic fits the retailers that is shown on Fashion Star.
I embraced my creativity, now is the time to share it with the world.
Ihave been sewing and designing scince the 6th grade, when my sewing teacher told me I
was hopeless and would never learn how to sew
I took the challange and by the 11 grade I
was making my own patterns and teaching my
teacher. every where I go people rave about
what I am wearing our my purses I design and
make, almost to the point of akwardness.Once in walmart the meat cutter came from the
backroom to find out where I got my outfit
because he said his wife would love it and he wanted to buy it. I had a complete
stranger offer to buy my purse for 400.00dollars and many many more offers.who am I ? I am a wife of 35 years, mother of 6 home schooled children, and a breast cancer sivivior but a desinger at heart from childhood.
Hi, my name is Natasha, I live in Atlanta, Ga. I've been sewing and designing for over 25 yrs. Designing is apart of me. I couldn't describe myself if design wasn't apart of it. I know I have a God given talent, and I'm bursting at the seams,(no pun intended;), to show th world what I can do.
My aesthetic is more architectural and European inspired. I love to shape and mold my designs in several fabric manipulation techniques. It's amazing when my designs come to life. So I know th buyers will be clambering to buy my designs.
I would love to have a chance at fashion star
please let me know where and when auditions
are. I am only interested in fashion, not
other reality shows.
would be perfect for this show because i am a good role model, i am very open person, i strive to do my best in anything and i will work really hard to get what i want. There's so much i want to succeed and acting is one of them. I am not quite experienced really well but i am good at listening and coming up with interesting things. I am a model and i love fashion!
I didn't always want to be a designer until high school. I use to be a tom boy and played every sport. My grandmother use to be a seamstress for Liz Clairborne and had an old form in her room with an industrial singer sewing machine in her bedroom. I spent one summer with her before high school and fell in love with FASHION! My freshman year of high school i started the schools first fashion club and put on their first student body fashion show. i later transfered schools and attended another school where i started there first student fashion show too. This time i made all the clothes and had all my friends model. it was a huge success. That was when I knew this was my passion and what Im great at! I attended the Boston school of fashion design. My final semester my sketching teacher gave me a C , now a c was not passing in the schools eyes so that required me to retake the class. I never graduated school i came home and managed to become an assistant buyer at a local boutique left that position for another assistant buyer job. I ended up quiting and am not serving tables at a local restaurant to pursue my dream of becoming a fashion desginer. I want to focus 120% on my line. I quit my job for this, and I am ready for what ever it takes! I also make all my clothes and hold fashion shows at a local bar intown. Anything to get my name out there! I need to be on the next fashion star because i know i have what it takes. and i know my clothes are amazing for this show!!
PICK ME !
My name is Nicole Glaspie , started sewing at 12 years old!!! Work a part time job and sew and design garments seven days as week. I love designing for clients. Prom dresses, leather jacket, swim suit, wedding dresses and many more!!!! First time watching show and feel in love!!!!!!
I a very competitive woman that is very creative and passionate when it comes to designing . Would love to
be the next Fashion Star.
For quite a while close people and clients would say I should go on Project Runway but that was not for me. I really have focused on designer against many obstacles as it is my life and I am driven to create and like to be behind the scenes. But your show is fabulous and it would be a major honor to be selected as a designer for your show. This show is so much more and I do drop my work to watch, learning so much along the way to enhance my business . Thank you
I know that I have what it takes to be casted on Fashion Star and to win. Not only do I know how to design, draft patterns, construct and tailor garments, but I am a fine artist as well. I know how to give a fresh interpretation to current trends. I design clothes that are current, marketable and flattering in fit. My taste is innovative but not over- designed. Most of all, I know how to design for all markets, taking a high end look and adapting it to a wider range of retailers. If you give me a shot I will show you that I have what it takes to be America's next fashion star!!
Hannah Rose Ballinger would be awesome on this show. She designs like no one else in our area. A big plus too is that her personality is really cute. She would make an awesome fit to your show!
Hy, I'm a 15 yr old boy inspired by all things art and currently I don't know which kind of art to look into and focus on. I've started doing art since i was 5 years old, and I want to get in this show because I think I have the skills and creativeness that people need to know about, another reason why I wanted to get in this show is because i've never believed that a kid like me living in San Diego California and going to High School would be able to get in this show.
I have a style that both Men and Women will benefit from internationally.
My name is Latisha Daring I am 37 years old with 22 years Retail experience in the women's market. I have recently transitioned as a retailer into design. I am passionate about Unique Quality, Form and Fit and with my experience in retail and the business of fashion, I am sure that I would be a great candidate for Fashion Star. I embody all that this show represents and have been dreaming of a show that truly embodied the business and profitability aspect of the industry. Even if I am not selected for a casting opportunity. I absolutely LOVE the show. Great Job!!
Hi my name is Damia,I'm 19 from Philadelphia pa.I think i should be chosen to be on the Fashion Star cast because, I've Always loved fashion,I have a lot of high end fashion sketches drawn out already. Also it would help me on my feet to be discovered so I can support my 8 month son.
#LIVE.LIFE.WITH.FASHION 🙂
<—–Excellent pick…!
Hi my name is Tiarra and although I do not know how to design clothes I have a cousin named Genevieve Cooley. She has been designing clothes for over 10 years. She has put on numerous fashion shows over the years and it has always been a dream of hers to have her designs put in a major department store. I would be an honor if she was given a shot on your show to show how great of a designer she is.
Soooo for starters I just kind of stumbled across this and decided to give it a shot. I'm a 23 yr old aspiring designer and former model. I struggled through school trying to figure out what career path I wanted to take that I could see myself doing forever. Well after many failed semesters, I finally figured it out, just too little too late. Since then, I have been putting my full focus into my own "Imaging" company that offers a variety of services including custom made apparel. I named it Fabric(-ated). I have always had my own sense of style and unique way of thinking, as I always thought first impressions meant everything lol. I can't say why I SHOULD be part of FASHION STAR as if I deserve it more than anyone else, but I know this would be an awesome opportunity for me. There have been few times in my life where I have been given chances like THIS ONE!!! I need this like a runway needs models!!! GOOD LUCK TO ALL YOU GUYS!!!
Pick me Pick me!!! I just found out about your show and I can't say enough about the wonderful thing you are doing. I have always hoped someone would think of a show to mentor artists that work with mediums. I love singing shows but this is different and I would love to have an opportunity to be on your show! I have been a work at home seamstress for 20 years, I took some classes at FIDM for textile design. I LOVE fabrics, sewing them, designing my own patterns, painting, crochet and beadwork. Designing is my passion. However I am terrible at promoting myself and barely surviving. I can make the stuff but I'm not sure how to get it out there to the world. My dream is to do educational functional artwork with a purpose and work with sustainable fabrics. I would also like to donate 10% to WWF to save endangered animals. I would feel so blessed to have this opportunity of a lifetime to make my dream come true (finally I"m 42!) . Thank you for your consideration! Well, back to the sewing machine. Linda M. Berget
I would love to be featured on the next season of Fashion Star. I have a lot of experience; sketching, draping, patterning making, sewing, etc… I have a unique style that brings fashion and function together for the modern women. My designs evolve with my inspiration and environment. I would love to apply for next season.
Thanks!

My name is Kayla.
I'm 20 years old.
I live in Cambridge, Minnesota.
I'm very artistic and talented.
I love anything dealing with fashion, because fashion is my passion and I plan on pursuing it no matter what it takes.
I have been sewing for 6 years, but I know I am still kind of a beginner. I know I don't have the worlds greatest experience, but when I'm sewing and designing it comes natural to me.
My family and friends have been my motive and inspiration from day one. My friends helped me see that fashion designing is what I was meant to do. They seek out my advice on fashion any chance they get and I love it. My family has helped by inspiring me and showing me that I'm talented in fashion. A cousin of mine who is getting married is letting me have the honor in sewing her wedding dress. It's becoming amazingly gorgeous.
I have had many years to accumulate my own designs in a binder. I never run out of idea's, because I dream most of them up; so in the morning at most I have 5 new designs.
Right now in my life I am trying to pursue my dream by going to college in the fall in another state.
It would be a dream come true to get a chance to attempt to pursue my dream on Fashion Star('s). Whether I fail or not it's great experience and step towards my dream!
