3 Women Who are Making Moves + Setting Trends in KC

Kansas City is a hub of art and creativity. You don't have to go far to find new trends and inspiration. Here are three of the local fashion designers I am keeping an eye on and what I am loving from them right now. And catch them featured in KC Fashion Week 2020 this March!

1. Audrey Lockwood

"As a designer and blogger I channel an edgy retro style that always maintains femininity. I channel bold color and strong texture throughout my work to dress the girl boss that everyone is drawn to. I am heavily inspired by vintage dress and pop culture. I enjoy pushing my own personal boundaries and challenging my comfort zone. My designs are all about empowering the boldest of women." —Audrey

2. Cydney Ross

"As a sculptor and jewelry designer I create works of art in ceramics and mixed media, and a wearable fashion line featuring precision-crafted, porcelain jewelry and accessories. My interest in buildings is inspired by the urban and rural structures that surround me in my Midwestern hometown and travels. Architecture guides the forms and surfaces explored in all areas of my studio practice. Structures being built, torn down, or that have faced massive destruction capture my attention and stir my curiosity." —Cydney

3. Nataliya Meyer

"I always knew I was going to be creating clothing. It somehow has been woven into me, just like learning to speak or how to write. I believe beauty will save the world. No matter how childish it sounds, I try to make it happen by little things that one person can do. I enjoy making unique costumes for kids and giving some of them away for free just to see their happiness or using the leftover fabric that anyone else would have thrown away, to make something beautiful. I'm obsessed with my work and I'm very lucky to have it as an addiction that is creative rather than destructive. Almost every minute of my adult life I am haunted with clothing: its creation, its fit, and its design." —Nataliya
