Iliana Quander Amparo

I’m Iliana Quander Amparo, an independent designer, artist and educator focused on designing and producing one-of-a-kind, short-run and custom clothing for women. I co-operate a clothing boutique with the So Hung Designs Collective, with spaces in NYC’s East Village and Chelsea, bringing guerrilla couture to life.

Since 2008, I have performed on-site tailoring for the fashion and entertainment industry for commercial and high-end markets, working with notable clients and companies. I have extensive experience with editorial shoots, short films, theater and fashion shows, both as a designer and tailor. I teach and consult on sustainability in fashion design, sewing, zero-waste techniques for designers, and clothing reconstruction.
