Alba Usai

Costume designer, creator of unique garments for haute couture and theatre

A young artist, costume designer, and stylist with a lively yet refined creativity, able to transform fabrics and materials into unique, theatrical, and at times delightfully extravagant garments designed for theatre, Carnival, ceremonies, and major events. Her sensitivity emerges from the interplay of tailoring, visual arts, and meticulous attention to detail, which she uses to give shape to characters, atmospheres, and visions.

Her education developed between the Stradivari Art High School in Cremona and the Steiner schools of Lugano, Origlio, and Milan, enriched by a cultural experience in Argentina that expanded her style and perspective. She collaborates with the Antonia Sautter Atelier in Venice as a costume designer, wardrobe assistant, and decorator, creating art garments for prestigious shows and events.

Alongside her tailoring work, she is involved in theatre design and stage set creation, bringing a comprehensive vision that unites concept, form, and presence. She has also gained educational experience through creative workshops and activities with children.

She is now launching her independent career as a costume designer, stylist, and creator for theatre and major events, combining technique, inspiration, and a fresh, personal sensibility.

Her name expresses her essence: Alba, “the light that is born.”

And this is exactly what she brings into her costumes: a new way of seeing form and beauty.
