  • Jesselynn Desmond

    Born into a lineage of talented seamstresses, I grew up stitching alongside my grandmother and aunts, absorbing the craft like second nature. For 27 years, I toured the globe as a circus performer, dazzling audiences by night and designing avant-garde costumes for our troupe by day—where imagination met needle and thread in the most spectacular ways. In 2024, I planted roots in the vibrant heart of West Sedona, AZ, and opened Transfiguration Station—a one-of-a-kind studio where transformation is the name of the game. Whether it's a hem, a high-fashion piece, or a whole new vision, I’m here to stitch magic into every seam.
