Anne De Pasquale

Designer Profile

About Me

From a foundation built in textiles, theatrical millinery, and fashion, Anne DePasquale's innovative, retro-glam designs are reminiscent of the past, but interpreted for the fashion forward woman of today.

 I take pride in making impeccable quality and cutting-edge styles.  I create unique, limited edition hats and accessories. My accessories are all designed, and made by me.   I hand block or hand sculpt from the finest millinery felt available. My sewn items are made from the unique fabric I’ve collected throughout the years.

  I graduated from Rhode Island School of Design, aka- RISD, with a BFA in textiles. I began my career in NYC fashion working for designers Betsey Johnson,Anna Sui, and Donna Karan.  With a desire to reconnect with artisan craft, I began working under renowned milliners Arnold S. Levine and Rodney Gordon, creating millinery for Broadway.   After a short time designing hats for the JLO line sold at Macy’s, I returned to my roots and now I only make One-of–a-Kind and limited edition hand crafted accessories. 

 There's inspiration everywhere in NYC, but I do love to travel as much as possible. I find different cultures especially inspiring.  My portfolio of designs can be found on my website WWW.ANNEDEPASQUALE.COM.
