TODAY’S FEATURED DESIGNER-A-DAY
FOR THE FASHION DENVER HOLIDAY MARKET
Name: Alysha Trujillo
Business: Iklektik Jewelry (Semi-Finalist of the RAWards)
When were you first inspired to design? I’ve always felt an urge to be artistic… I just never knew how to fully embrace it. I think jewelry design is such an amazing opportunity for me to be myself, have no rules or expectations… And it keeps me grounded. There is nothing that can compare to expressing your creativity.
What will you be showing at Fashion Denver’s Holiday Market? Handmade jewelry
If you had to pick one piece from your collection that most represents your personality, which would it be? Hmm. That’s an interesting question. My personality is very multifaceted and so are all of my pieces… I guess if I had to say which single piece best represents me, it would have to be Lilon. It’s bold, it’s one-of-a-kind…, it’s extremely different, outspoken and nontraditional. It’s meaningful and authentic. 🙂
Why should people come see you at the Fashion Denver Holiday Market on December 15th? People should want to come see my creations because they’re completely unique and made with the ultimate level of passion… i think my pieces reflect that.
From your collection, what would be the perfect holiday gift? I take pride in the fact that my pieces are totally varied and have unique styles to each collection. Theres sort of something for everyone… A “perfect gift” in my opinion, is thoughtful.. If one of my pieces speaks to you and reflects an essence of someone you know… To me, that’s the “perfect gift.”
