Killture

• Tweet

At 24, she’s a mom, graphic/web designer, photographer, cosmotologist, and a model. She’s  the total beautiful package. She’s creative, opinionated, loving and carefree. She’s none other than Odessa.

Odessa founded an accessory line in 2009 named “Killture“. Her accessory line’s name was coined from the phrase, “Couture to kill for”, and so it was named Killture. She believes that people talk about fashion a lot and they do want to have it. But they just don’t want to have such pieces for the sake of having it. People want to have items that would make them say, “I would  KILL for that!”.  So Odessa’s pieces are uniquely made  to give you that killer effect once you start wearing it. When you just pass by, people will really stare or look back at you not once but thrice. They would be wondering where on Earth did you get those shades from. Odessa’s designs are not the typical sunglasses we see every single day.

Odessa’s accessory line focuses on sunglasses. However, she’s not stopping there. She is definitely working on other pieces (such as rings, necklaces, bracelets and others) that will surely be making couture to die for.

Odessa’s creativity is geared towards making her customers look good all the time with her sunglasses and hopefully her upcoming pieces as well. Born and raised in the Bay Area, Odessa never attended a formal schooling as a designer.  She never learned to stitch or even sew. She just learned certain things online.

Indeed, Odessa has collectively used her skills to come up with everything sh has right now. On her modeling stints, she usually wears her own designs. This made her realize that aside from modeling, she can actually design her own pieces. When she finally came up with Killture, she used her web/graphic designing skills again to promote her accessory line. With her personally designed and managed website, killture.com, she displays and sells her products there.

Odessa has always loved fashion. She creates and wears her own pieces. Every time she goes out, people get curious on where she got them. There were a lot of times when people would ask to make something for them. So, from there, she decided to come with her online store that showcases her killture creations.

Aside from her online store, she also wants to have an offline store. She likes to keep herself busy as she definitely wants to be there running things herself. So, she prefers to have her store near a place where she would  like to live.

Odessa’s sunglasses are inspired by things that look hot to her. She saw Lady Gaga’s performances in the song, “Disco Stick”. Lady Gaga’s outfits looked liked disco balls or mirrored masks. She got fascinated and so she came up with her “Disco Shades”.

Killture is still new in the fashion industry. But Odessa’s designs will surely be loved by fashion icons such as Lady Gaga and Rihanna. She believes that both of these celebrities have styles that definitely fits her look and styles. If Rihanna loved A-morir’s barracuda shades, she will surely love Killture’s sunglasses.

With Odessa’s creativity and love for fashion, Killture will definitely go a long way. She’s got the looks, the brain, the skill, the talent, and a flourishing business that celebrities will look forward to in the future. Because of her creativity, she can come up with more and more designs and accessories. With her graphic/web design skills, her Killture sales will surely be skyrocketing.

Always be on a look out for Odessa’s creative accessories. They are definitely worth dying for!
