Leesa Kassler broke all life's rules and started her fashion career after the age of 50.  In a few short months, she will receive a Bachelor of Science degree in Fashion Design.  But already, she has taken the Pittsburgh fashion world by storm, achieving the Designer of the Year award nomination from Style Week Pittsburgh 2016.  Her designs will be featured in the Young Designer Awards in New York and London in the Fall of 2017, and she was a featured designer at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History.  

Her style ranges from vintage 1920's to the 60's to the present day formal wear fashions for women.  She acted as a design instructor to the Pittsburgh Community Youth Invasion and vows to remain in Pittsburgh where her career began.  Leesa's designs continue to haunt the runways in fashion shows throughout the city.  Up and coming projects include an apprenticeship with Kick Attire and custom designs for local models.  Sit back and watch her career grow!

Recently Leesa has been added to the Inspiring Lives Magazine Issue 3 showing one of her amazing designs.
