About Svetlana
I am an Fashion Designer and Illustrator with a lot of passion and experience.
I have a good eye for fashion.
I am well versed in apparel design and have worked the industry for several years. I am skillful of designing garments, creating patterns, sewing, construction, technical specs, flat sketches, mood and trend boards, color palettes, etc. I am also skilled in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I graduated Summa *** Laude with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Fashion Design from the International Academy of Design & Technology. I have been designing garments and costumes since I was a young girl and created my own line Second Skin by S. Failla in 2000.
My Philosophy
To design clothing which uses bright colors to uplift the spirit, combine materials to create interest, and features unique details to add refinement. Utilizing bright colors regardless of the season of weather. Mixing fabrics such as denim with sweater knit or cotton with Lycra, mesh knit, or chiffon. Combining bright yarn, together with the dark colors of cotton Lycra. Featuring unique abstract details inspired by nature, including waving yarn, aplique, and painting. Designs with simple construction that create complex visual forms on the body. Garments with the ability to be transformed into multiple looks. Separates which mix and match within a collection. My collection utlizes color, mixed fabrics, and intricate details for excitement and energy to make people feel happy and beautiful. My Email: (concealed information)

Svetlana is a patient teacher who will carefully walk you through all the steps from basic to advanced sewing. She shares her passion and knowledge for creating garments - guiding the eye in design and the hand in production. She can also tutor in pattern making and fashion illustration - both by hand and by computer applications.
