Emerging designer Spotlight is on Cody Ross

by trish on October 23, 2008




Cody Ross is a Dallas-born fashion designer. He is known for his kitschy
and sometimes provocative designs. After working in Asia for several years
as a financial analyst, he returned to the United States to pursue his
true passion (womenswear design) and launched Priestess NYC in late 2007.
His unique creations have been worn by celebrities and super-models
including Tyra Banks, Juliette Lewis, Bjork and Danity Kane and the line
has attracted buyers from avant-garde boutiques and department stores
around the world. Cody’s main inspiration comes from abstract art,
mathematics and ‘vintage-punk.’ He designs out of his West Village
townhouse-cum-atelier and lives fulltime in NYC. Cody’s stuff has been
featured in lots of cool publications, including Vogue, Style.com, i-D and
Dazed and Confused, etc . .

He has a BSC from the London School of Economics as well as credentials in
pattern-construction + design from London’s Central Saint Martins.
