My name is Susan Tosches and I am a fashion designer, wardrobe stylist & textile artist...I have been working gigs for a few years now here in Las Vegas and love every second of it. I'm originally from the Los Angeles area and relaxed beach bum/skater/hippie/indie vibe has greatly inspired my style. I am in love with thrift shopping, sewing, photography, free thinking people, and laughter. I think people should only wear garments that make them smile. I love pretty much all forms of art but my favorite is anything made with recycled fabrics...hence my Associates degree in Fashion Design
I do all kinds of art but have a soft spot for redesigning used retro & boho materials into fun "new" garment creations . My clothing is really eclectic and my inventory is always changing. I often sell garments once I have used them for a project...so if you see something you like, just let me know and I will see if it is still available. You can also check out my online store:http://myworld.ebay.com/altered_nation_clothing
I am always looking for freelance art work in the Las Vegas area so please contact me if you are interested in collaborating. The more fun we can have with a project, the better!
