Ava Youssefi

Costume Designer Stylist Milliner

Ava is an Iranian-American artist residing in Los Angeles. She received her fashion certificate from Otis College of Art and Design in 2015, and is currently enrolled in Otis’s BFA program for fashion design. She designs transcendent costumes for musicians, performers, and the film industry.

Her work stems from a belief that humans have innate magical abilities. She creates surreal garments to wake the subconscious and aid in the realization of our own unique powers.

Ava is captivated by character exploration, using clothing as a vehicle for unlocking archetypes and self-actualization. She has distinguished herself through her ability to seamlessly weave fantasy with reality, wrapping it all together with an extensive emotional palette.

Custom headwear is Ava's specialty. This mad hattress has a deep-seeded affection for adorning the crown. Ava has made it her life's mission to spread self-love and confidence: To lift heads and hearts, one hat at a time.
