About this listen

In this episode of Artists Unveiled, we sit down with Sarah Anderson, the powerhouse designer and creative mind behind Born From Stars, a couture label that emerged from loss, resilience, and pure rebirth. From sewing machines that sound like tractor trailers to vintage tulle skirts reborn as runway gowns, Sarah’s story is one of grit wrapped in glitter.

Born in Massachusetts and forged in New York City’s creative pulse, Sarah moved to the city at 18 with nothing but Forever 21 bags and a dream. Her journey, from bartending and corporate fashion to Harper’s Bazaar features and a debut at New York Fashion Week, reveals what it truly means to build something from the ashes of what once was.

When a plumbing disaster wiped out her first brand, The Desygn House, she didn’t quit, she reimagined. Born From Stars became her response to destruction: proof that sometimes the universe has to explode for something new to form.

In this conversation, Sarah talks about the dance between time and money, creating fashion that is genderless and deeply human, and why the story behind a garment is just as important as the stitch that holds it together. She opens up about the realities of self-funding, navigating rejection, staying authentic in the face of social media noise, and holding faith in the process when the world doesn’t yet believe in your dream.

Her perspective is raw and real, on burnout, manifestation, community, and the courage it takes to keep going when your family doesn’t understand the path you’ve chosen.

Because Born From Stars isn’t just a brand name.
It’s a reminder: creation is born from collapse.
