Cody Ross of PRIESTESS NYC

Cody Ross is a Dallas-born fashion designer. He is known for his kitschy and sometimes provocative designs. After working in Asia for several years as a financial analyst, he returned to the United States to pursue his true passion (womenswear design) and launched Priestess NYC in late 2007. His unique creations have been worn by celebrities and super-models including Tyra Banks, Juliette Lewis, Greta Cavazzoni and Leigh Lezark, etc. and the line has attracted buyers from avant-garde boutiques and department stores around the world. Cody’s main inspiration comes from abstract art, mathematics and vintage-punk. He designs out of his West Village townhouse-cum-atelier and lives fulltime in NYC. He has a BSc from the London School of Economics as well as credentials in pattern-construction + design from Central Saint Martins, London UK.
