Melissa Clemente Designs

Artist Her Story:

Melissa has been selling her pieces and establishing a signature one of a kind design aesthetic geared towards jewelry and women’s accessories for the past 4 years. Her objectives are to cultivate new concepts and expand her company, to the Philippines in spring ’07.

"We wear things to mimic what we think is beautiful. I create by looking at what everyday people wear trying to ornament and highlight what it is that they are trying to say about their individuality. I believe that details make the difference. The objective is not to wear combinations or coordinates that are pre-meditated by someone else. The idea is to be more intrepid with our fashion sense using the simplest accenting. I’d like to encourage women to own their look, be comfortable and most certainly, have fun with it." -- Melissa Clemente, Accessories Designer

Where each of the collections strives to enhance an overall look, Melissa Clemente Designs also aims to challenge the more conventional perceptions of accessory considerations. These pieces are as much a statement on a runway as they are sculptures that any curator would be inclined to recruit for an exhibit. Clearly, experimental couture lives at the bottom of this designer’s heart. With minimal classes in sterling metal work at the Organic Metal Gallery, she has organized and participated in numerous trade shows and showcases as well as worked alongside various Toronto fashion collectives.
