About Ava Kalberer
I am a Fashion Design student at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York with a strong foundation in garment construction, design, and hands-on industry experience. I studied fashion design at Eastern Suffolk BOCES in the one year, fashion design program. I created multiple collections while developing advanced sewing and technical skills. In 2020, I began designing and producing merchandise for a local boutique. I created unique, one of a kind accessories from recycled material, created inventory to fulfill inventory needs, and maintained accurate records of all products in inventory. I volunteered during fall/winter 2026 fashion week for Raul Penaranda, assisting with the fashion presentation. At FIT, my coursework includes Visual Design, Digital Design Studio, Textile Analysis, Design Draping, and Sewing where I’ve developed collections, hand-drawn technical flats, digital textiles, and garments using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. I am passionate about collaboration, craftsmanship, and continued growth within the fashion industry.
