Sleek fabrics, classic silhouettes, and an infusion of Cree culture are the hallmarks of LUXX ready-to-wear garments made by fashion designer Derek Jagodzinsky, a member of the Whitefish First Nation.Jagodzinsky graduated from the University of Alberta with a Bachelor of Design degree, and went on to intern in New York with fashion designer Michael Kaye Couture. These experiences, Jagodzinsky explains, provided him with the opportunity to not only refine his skills in couture, but also to understand the business side of fashion from an international perspective.
LUXX clothing is produced in Edmonton, and is handmade in small quantities to ensure quality craftsmanship.
