Much like New Orleans itself, Kate Fusilier, creator of Cosmic Collective, chooses fabulous every time. The accidental designer started crafting rhinestone-fringed bandanas as a stylish alternative to COVID-19 masks during the pandemic. What began as a bold DIY solution evolved into a festive fashion line for the perennial party girl. Think tinsel chaps, capes, and vibrant pieces that feel like a technicolor fever dream – picture perfect attire for Mardi Gras, game day or just a fun night out.
Fusilier credits her sobriety, hard work and a little boost from Cowboy Carter mania for the success she is having. With this elevated energy and ambition, she is set to show eight looks in the upcoming Flying Solo’s “Ones to Watch” fashion show during New York Fashion Week. Quite a feat for someone who just learned how to sew!
As her success continues, including dressing Kenny Chesney’s bass player, Harmoni Kelley, for a show at The Sphere in Las Vegas, Fusilier remains committed to keeping her work eco-conscious. Many of her creations start with thrifted pieces, later transformed into bedazzled, over-the-top versions of their former selves. Sustainability is key, and custom work will always remain at the heart of her brand. Maybe you need a blinged-out top for an upcoming celebration or something custom designed for a friend? Whatever the case, Cosmic Collective will help you stand out in a crowd.
