Amaranth Designs offers modern timeless pieces that fit the needs of every lifestyle. We design garments for today’s elegant, confident, and sophisticated woman. Our collections are designed with the busy woman in mind. Our pieces transition from work to play and from day to evening.
What you will discover about Amaranth Designs is that we use only the highest quality fabrics. We pay attention to every little detail. We create those ‘must have’ pieces that fit your individual style, and we also create fashionable pieces that will last through multiple seasons.
Amaranth Designs was established in Regina in 2000. We started out as a custom fashion design and alterations company and we have now added two collections per year, namely; Spring & Summer and Fall & Winter.
Our goal is always to design pieces that will be favourites in your closet to be worn for years to come. These designs are very easy to dress up or down. Amaranth Designs’ objective is to design and create garments that suit women of all ages and in every walk of life.
How do you define craft?
Crafting is important as I am finding it to be somewhat of a lost art. Making something by hand from scratch is quite a feat. Being able to share my craft with others and seeing them wear my designs is quite an accomplishment.
What inspires you?
I am inspired by the everyday woman. Knowing what she wants to wear helps me with the design process.
How did you learn your medium?
I learned to sew from my mom and grandmother. Once I graduated high school, I continued my studies in fashion design.
