Riverside Arts Market - Jacksonville, FL

Kathryn Page is a fabric artist and fashion designer who creates clothes which express a casual elegance. Her clothing has an aura of the sensual without being overly sexy. She uses colors and textures which, on their own, might not seem to go together, but all together they form a wonderful confection with a sumptuous visual appeal. Every item designed by Kathryn Page is completely hand made and one of a kind.

“Nature inspires me” Kathryn says. “Living in Florida, I am enamored by the colors of the water and the foliage. It is so lush and green here. I am a passionate sort of person, and I love color. Sometimes just a single color will give me inspiration. I want to make women feel pretty and feminine. I am driven and very dedicated to what I do. I am complete when I am creating.”

Kathryn says she is “inspired by romantic vintage influences. Fashion should be about fantasies that transport us from the everyday routine of life”.

Kathryn grew up in the Midwest then moved to New York City in the 1960's. She always enjoyed wearing unusual clothing and continues today creating unique looks for the public. While living in Manhattan, she designed shoes for Herbert Levine and was a contributing editor to Ladies Home Journal, as well as Needle & Craft Magazine. Her paper shoe designs were published in Harper's Bazaar, and her work was included in several exhibits at the Museum of Contemporary Crafts. Kathryn enjoys creating fantasy inspired art-to-wear incorporating her hand-dyed fabrics as a fiber artist.

She and her husband Michael travel to the Riverside Arts Market each week from their home in Mount Dora, Florida.
