Fashion Design Company puts
Colorado Springs on the Internet Runway
When we as Americans think of top fashion designs we often think of
European Designers and mod avant-garde looks. Well we have our own
European Designer right here in little old Colorado Springs. Her name is
Annemarie Algermissen and her company FashionDesigns.us is illuminating
what previously was only visible to the monetarily blessed; Custom Fashion
Design! Ms. Algermissen with over 30 years of design experience has made
her talents vividly clear by way of the Internet. FashionDesigns.us has
had the honor of designing wears for celebrities from New York to
Hollywood, formal capes for opera singers to one of a kind wedding gown
creations for brides.
Ms. Algermissen, a new American Citizen as of August of 2003 does
not take her citizenship lightly nor does she take it for granted. After
speaking with her it doesn't take one long to see a true American. Born
and raised in a small town near Cologne, Germany where her fantasy and
imaginative creativity in design began, she caught the interest of her
local community. Annermarie then made her way to USA in 1996 and is now
realizing the American Dream.
Through the unique display of her custom designs via streaming
videos and mouse over effects that turn the models to show the posterior
views of her magical apparel and an obvious recognition of her pure talent
and proficiency, Ms. Algermissen has captured the interest of nationally
acclaimed publications. Studio Sunshine a division of FashionDesigns.us
was recently featured in the Web Watch section of "Pageantry"
Magazine and an incredible full-length custom cape adorned the cover of
Dive Training Magazine Caribbean Carnival Edition.
FashionDesigns.us specializes in custom fashion apparel designs to
include such items as wedding gowns, formal evening gowns, formal capes,
dresses for Debutant Balls and Proms, suits for executive women,
Renaissance clothing and costumes. Some of the other artistic services
offered are wardrobe duplication, tailoring and alterations and gown
redesign and refurbishment.
FashionDesigns.us allows for you to have the design idea, drawing
or photograph of your formal gown, cape or costume and they create it. Ms.
Algermissen says that many of the most stunning and elaborate designs have
been conceived by her clients’ willingness to sketch their dream
garments and describe with detail the movement, texture and colors of the
fabrics.
Annemarie's company carries most all fabrics and specialty high-end
fabrics such as silk, satin and velvets in a very wide variety of colors
so you don't have to bother with fabric stores. They also maintain a large
volume of fabric samples online. Most of the fabrics come from New York,
Los Angeles and India.
FashionDesings.us and Studio Sunshine have participated in several
fashion shows and bridal shows in Colorado and you can enjoy a wonderful
display of the custom works at the upcoming Wedding Fashion show hosted by
Great Events at the Wyndham Hotel and Resort in Colorado Springs on
February 8, 2003. FashionDesigns.us will also be the featured designer in
an upcoming fashion show held in Colorado Springs in mid March. This event
will benefit the Native American Children's Fund and is a black tie
affair. (This event will be featured live via web cast on
ColoradoSprings.TV.) More information about this event will be available
at FashionDesigns.us in the very near future.
Online catalogs are available at www.FashionDesigns.us and include
products such as Capes, Undergarments, Gloves, Wedding Accessories,
Headwear, Renaissance Clothing and a wide variety of custom gown examples.
For those whom do not have Internet access or just prefer pictures in hand
FashionDesigns.us will gladly send a full color catalog.
Discussing the idea of creating wardrobe previously only
imagined and fantasized about seemed to be a very hot topic for a local
group of ladies briefly interviewed about the subject. I realized this to
be a subject with great interest as the interviewees quickly became
impassioned and involved in the discussion without remembering I was
present. Annemarie Algermissen with FashionDesigns.us is definitely on to
something powerful!
