Priestess NYC is a cool/quirky/fun womenswear label emphasizing AMAZING construction + silhouettes and absurd+directional prints/cuts!

Cody Ross, 30, designer and founder of Priestess NYC is a Dallas-born fashion designer who has a BSc from the London School of Economics as well as credentials in Pattern-Construction+Design from London's Central Saint Martins.

Cody is known for his "kitschy, punky, futuristic" (Cody's description) and sometimes provocative designs.

After working in Asia for several years as a financial analyst, he has returned to the United States to pursue his true passion which is -womenswear design- and launched Priestess NYC in late 2007.

His unique creations have been worn by celebrities and super-models including Tyra Banks, Juliette Lewis, Bjork and Danity Kane and the line has attracted buyers from avant-garde boutiques and department stores around the world.

Cody says that his main inspiration comes from abstract art, mathematics and 'vintage-punk'.

Priestess NYC's Fall 2008 collection -a few items shown here- is a line of dresses, jackets, jumpsuits and other versatile pieces made for layering and constructed of silk-blends, wools, soft jerseys/cottons.

There are also wonderful and trendsetting bangles in Priestess NYC Fall 2008 collection which Cody calls them as "Textile Jewelry".

Cody designs out of his West Village townhouse-cum-atelier while living full time in NYC.

Cody's stuff has also been featured in lots of other cool publications and Priestess NYC is available at more than 50 boutiques, worldwide.
