Cupcake Mag Q & A Session with Esther Nash

Esther Nash fell in love with fashion at the age of 5,
on her first day of school, dressing in a different theme daily.
It has very much continued to the present -
a reason to just LOVE ESTHER and her rock star glam style.

Cupcake Mag: What made you decide to design your own line?

Esther Nash: I design for the petite athletic build as they are beautiful but for the most part neglected in the fashion industry. Designers use 6 feet as their measurements for women designs and realistically this is not Sweden. This is America and we are a land of many people with different measurements. I have always been independent and a trendsetter. I always liked being the leader in the game follow the leader at school. So it just followed naturally.

CM: What advice do you have for aspiring fashion designers?

EN: Follow your dream and turn a deaf ear and a blind eye on people who laugh at you!! Remember they are just jealous and without any talent or education.

CM: What's up next for you?

I am waiting for my invitation to the White House. I would like to design for the whole family. In the nearer future my next show will be in September 2009 at St. Charles Fashion Week and most likely BK Fashion Week in October 2009.

CM: When do you feel most inspired to work?

EN: Usually when I am relaxed the inspiration occurs. Many times I will be sipping tea with milk at downtown Ciprianni or speaking with Roman at Kiss and Fly or walking into Pink Elephant or sunbathing in my bikini on the rooftop pool at Gansevoort while flirting with Timothy or greeting my friends and family at Tenjune or listening to my publicist and in house counsel Shelly's ongoing commentary about current events, the latest house music and pop songs, her fan club of admirers as well as unknown passersby applying to be on her dance card.

CM: Who do you design for?

EN: I design for the petite athletic build as they are beautiful but for the most part neglected in the fashion industry. Designers use 6 feet as their measurements for women's designs and realistically this is not Sweden. This is America and we are a land of many people with different measurements.

CM:Who's your ideal customer or celeb client?

EN: Socialites and anyone that wishes to look like a celebrity. I would love to have an unlimited budget to dress Mayor Bloomberg, his daughter and all the nightlife impresarios of NYC. Design the looks for all the best places Tenjune, Cipriani, Kiss and Fly, Pink Elephant, Bagatelle, Mynt-Miami, Liv-Miami, Set-Miami,

CM: How did it feel to see your designs (sequin hats, jean shawls, some of the sequin dresses) being used on a show so huge as Sex and the City?

EN:It felt great to see my hard work was well received.

CM: If you weren't in the fashion industry, what would you be doing?

EN: Astronaut, Retired Gold medalist (gymnastics/uneven bars), race car driver, tight rope walker, circus performer, Fire woman, Police Chief, an Art teacher at a Public High School to inspire our NYC youth, Air force Pilot, FBI/CIA Secret Agent, Brain Surgeon (I am ambidextrous), Litigator, Professional Boxer, Cosmetologist, Owner of a Hair Salon/boutique/or Massage Parlor, Licensed General Contractor/Plumber, Electrician, Dolphin Trainer, Dog groomer, NFL Champion football player, Professional Cheerleader, Baller, Rock Star, Certified Aerobics Instructor or an auto body shop owner ( you only live once, its important to have a good time and enjoy your work)

CM: What do you think are essentials to every fashionista wardrobe?

EN: A few classic pieces and then mix them with everything over the top.

CM: How far in advance do you work on your collections?

EN: It's a constant process
