ABOUT

ILANA DI MARCO IS A DRUMMER, PHOTOGRAPHER AND DESIGNER, BORN AND RAISED IN QUEENS, NEW YORK.

THE BIRTH OF DI MARCO COMES MOST DIRECTLY FROM THE DESIGNER HERSELF AND WHAT HAS CONSISTENTLY INSPIRED HER OVER THE YEARS.

DI MARCO IS CONCERNED WITH BLURRING THE LINES BETWEEN TYPICAL MASCULINE AND FEMININE ROLES IN FASHION. GENDER AMBIGUITY REMAINS A CONSISTENT THEME FOR THE DESIGNER ACROSS ALL MEDIUMS, BUT IS STRONGLY REPRESENTED IN HER PHOTOGRAPHY WORK.

THE MORBID YET STRONGLY ALLURING PERSONALITY PUT FORTH IN HER DESIGNS READS AS SINCERE, FAMILIAR, AND MILDLY NOSTALGIC.

ILANA DI MARCO CURRENTLY DESIGNS FOR CONVERSE, DESIGNING APPAREL AND SHOES FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON. SHE GAINED HER DESIGN EXPERIENCE BY DESIGNING FOR A DIVERSE RANGE OF NOTABLE CLIENTS. THESE INCLUDE, ARTISTS, LADY GAGA, JUSTIN BIEBER, SELENA GOMEZ AND ADELE. AS WELL AS BANDS LIKE METALLICA, SYSTEM OF A DOWN AND BLACK VEIL BRIDES.
