Just as the FASHIFY team moved into a new home studio, we were able to arrange a shoot earlier then expected! We had an acceptional Couture Designer from Texas visit Miami Beach, which also had the honor of christening our new diggs *

Jennifer Murphy is a Couture Designer of true recycled, vintage fabrics. Her label “Pink B Couture” has items ranging from tops, dresses, jewelry, swimwear, bridal, and custom made pieces. At first, the FASHIFY staff was in a search of a local designer with strictly eco-friendly designs to feature and shoot pieces for a promo article. But fate would have it that our paths would cross with Ms. Murphy through a friendship of a previous featured artist. We would like to thank Jennifer for stopping by our studio to shoot a few of her lines new pieces, and letting us “pick her brain” in the interview below about this exciting brand that we’ll be sure to see more of in the near future. Check back often as some pieces may even make it to FASHIFY’s store for our readers to purchase!

1) What is the “back-story” of your line? How did Pink B Couture come about?

Well I started designing clothing for myself back in high school, my friends would see the clothing or notebook I designed and started asking me to cover their notebooks to match the glitter faux fur that I had on mine or design clothing for them such as prom dresses, tops etc back then I was just playing around or so I thought but going into 2008 I just got a little whim, took off from there and haven’t stopped since.

I totally agree that both fashion and life is art, other forms of art that I like to express myself through is home designing such as painting old furniture or crafting old, worn in furniture that I find on the street. I sorta tilt my head to the side when I see an old table or something and I am like hmmmm I know what I can do to this then Walllaaaa! When friends or family ask “Hey where did you get that from” then I go into my lil story they sorta look at me like WHAT?! in some form of shock… thats art.

A Pink B Couture chick is artsy, creative with a stylish and fun retro vibe, many of my of my consumers are late teen to mid thirtys women generally speaking. I believe a woman that likes to have a piece of clothing that is all her own or truly original or comes in limited quanites so you wont see everyone in town wearing the same thing when you hit the town. I think a woman that likes a subtle wow factor in her attire and likes very wearable couture is truly what a Pink B Couture woman is all about.

Pink B Couture has been featured as a semifinalist for Project Runway season 6, Austin Fashion Week Awards Rising Star Top 4 nominee, Sola Boutique Trunk Show, News 8 Austin, Austin Statesman. America’s Next Top Model season 12 contest London (Lauren) Levi has modeled Pink B Couture although I would love to have more celebrities in Pink B Couture which is something I look forward to seeing in ther near future, to really get my line out there for many women around the world to own a Pink B design would be nice!

I get asked all the time “Where can I find more of your designs?”, so people can definately look forward to seeing more Pink B Couture in a number of boutiques across the U.S. Other projects I am working on are setting up charitable work with charities one catered to children and the other in support of U.S troops such as USO, I’m a military spouse so that is a given that I will do what I can for support and I have been given so much in life that I want to give a little in return…
