Biographie

Nancy Amenti is a fashion designer working out of Vancouver, Canada. Her collections celebrate individuality and alternative fashion. Her designs are dark, romantic and post-apocalyptic. Nancy studied fashion merchandising at John Casablancas Institute then fashion design at LaSalle College. Working as an assistant to other local designers she developed an interest in entrepreneurship. That interest lead her to win a $5000 grant to develop a sustainable apparel line. Keeping true to her roots, alternative cultures continues to influence the direction of her designs.
