THE DESIGNER

 

 Amy Page DeBlasio, proud Providence, Rhode Island native, views the world through an artistic lens. Since she was a child, Amy’s life has revolved around art in one form or another, where she often paired conventional materials with unexpected components in her drawing, painting, jewelry-making, and sculpture. She has always been an artist, and found her niche in fashion.
Amy graduated from the University of Rhode Island with a Bachelor of Science degree in Textiles, Fashion Merchandising, and Design. She also received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Italian Language and Literature from URI.
Amy pushes conventional norms. An exuberant personality and edgy artistic perspective inspire her eye-catching designs and express a distinct urban attitude. Her bold and exotic pieces, created by pairing different patterns, fabrics, colors, and textures, promote thought, excitement, and most importantly, confidence.

Her inspiration is her intuition. She designs what she likes, and doesn't get wrapped up in the trends and what everyone else is doing. Amy does her own thing and has a passion to create pieces outside the box. She loves feeling connected to her customers through how they feel in her garments.

Amy has been a featured designer in several runway shows, has won Rhode Island Monthly's Best Fashion Designer the past four years, and two of her pieces were featured in the Worcester Art Museum’s summer 2021 exhibition The Iconic Jersey: Baseball x Fashion.
