Behind the Scenes at FashioNXT with Oxana Ake; first time creating a full collection to debut on the runway. About Oxana “Today, I work in the medium of textile collage, combining all the techniques I’ve learned to create something new and unique. One of my signature methods is machine stitching through a dissolving film, which allows me to make a billion tiny stitches attaching fabric pieces, crafted elements, threads, yarn, and ribbons to create a new lace fabric. I also use applique to add details such as flowers, birds, trees, animals, and countryside landscapes, while needlework and felting add three-dimensional texture.“. To learn more, visit her website:
