About Me

ABOUT TIFFΞ
Tiffe Fermaint is an independent fashion designer currently residing in Phoenix, Arizona. While all of her work is constructed in her private studio, she has been labeled one of the movers and shakers of her generation.
Her clothing is best described as bold street wear that is functional and flattering, appealing to creative souls who enjoy any party scene. Inspiration for her designs comes heavily from her love of music and dancing. Supporters include Uffie, Larry Tee, Freezepop, Hong Kong Counterfeit and many others.
At eight-teen, Tiffe's clothing could be found at boutiques valley-wide. The following year, she received a nomination for 'People's Choice Designer of the Year' at LabelHorde's Annual Platinum Stitch Awards and later, held her first fashion week show in November of 2005. Tiffe was honored to be a part of the fashion shows that took place on the Pacific Coast's Rock N the Seas Cruise in February 2006. The cruise included performances from The Tubes, Authority Zero, Gin Blossoms, and many more.
In 2006, Tiffe relocated to Los Angeles. While in LA she attended the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and worked for Diesel, USA. On side she interned for Meghan Fabulous, celebrity stylist Jessica Pastor, was a dresser for Los Angeles Fashion Week(s), and worked many odd jobs in the industry.
Currently, Tiffe is the Wardrobe Supervisor for a major television network. She also continues work with Boulevard Industries as wardrobe and production assistant for music videos based out of Los Angeles.
