About

Hi guys! I'm Kitty Krell, a fashion designer with tons of experience in constructing unique garments. I recently worked out a plan to break in to the Bridal Fashion industry here in Denver, starting with lingerie! I'm trying to get together the start-up capital to get my business off the ground and get enrolled in my first bridal show!

I've been sewing for over 10 years now, and though I was originally self-taught, I enrolled in a fashion design program a couple years ago, and now I'm almost finished with my formal training, looking towards the future!

My goal for this project is to have full stock of lingerie produced, and begin selling my line at my very first bridal show. I can't wait to have a full line of bras in a very large range of sizes, because I think that's currently underdeveloped in Colorado. I want to make a couple different garter belts, teddies, a babydoll design or two, a few different thong varieties, a couple of boyshort styles, and a few corsets. It's an ambitious project!

In order to get there, I need a ton of supplies! I need new knives for my serger, a bunch of laces and elastics, bra-making materials, knit fabrics, tricots, powermesh, boning, and silks. Not to mention some sort of portable dressing room, receipt books, and labels for my garments. I could also really use a coverlock machine and a proper cutting table, since I'll have access to neither once I finish school!

Lastly, I need the capital to get in my first show! Unfortunately, they are not free to vend at, and they cost quite a pretty penny! They range from $200 for a small show to $800 for the really large ones! I'm only asking for help with the first show's fees.

Here are some pictures of my previous work, and I'll be adding sketches of the garments I'll be making, to give you a good idea of what I'll be producing in order to get Crimson Rose Bridal off the ground and off to a great start!

Please help me out, and thank you so much for taking a look and possibly donating to the cause!
