We had the honor of meeting Dr. Jessica Konopka, the visionary founder of Regenexis Aesthetics. She has transcended the traditional role of a medical professional to establish herself as a prominent figure within the exclusive realm of international luxury brands. Her unique distinction lies in a profound understanding of both aesthetic principles and the intricate world of high fashion, a rare combination that sets her apart in a competitive industry. This inherent appreciation for beauty and style, cultivated through her medical expertise, positions her as an exceptionally effective representative for elite brands seeking authentic and credible endorsements. Upon researching we understand that her clinical background provides a deep understanding of rejuvenation and enhancement, while her discerning eye for style ensures she embodies the very essence of luxury she promotes. Dr. Konopka possesses an innate ability to identify and articulate the nuances of opulence, consistently projecting an image of sophistication and grace that resonates with the discerning clientele of high-end brands.
Jessica’s reputation for elevating fashion experiences to the pinnacle of five-star luxury precedes her, and her recent presence during New York Fashion Week served as a powerful testament to this. There, Dr. Konopka illuminated the runway, showcasing breathtaking designs that seamlessly fused sophisticated elegance with a palpable sense of female empowerment.
Beyond her captivating presence as a model, Dr. Konopka is a highly sought-after events curator, demonstrating a remarkable talent for orchestrating unforgettable occasions. This past month, she masterminded a prestigious Fashion Show at the opulent Palm Jumeirah Anantara Resort in Dubai, a showcase dedicated to the exceptional artistry of Vernice Holmes, a Connecticut-based artist and the visionary behind Luxury Dream Coats. Furthermore, Dr. Konopka has forged creative alliances with industry luminaries, including Catherine Schuller of CosMODA Runway, collaborating to produce high-profile fashion events that resonate with artistic innovation and unparalleled luxury.
This year marked another significant achievement for Dr. Jessica Konopka as she joined forces with Catherine Schuller, a multifaceted creative director and co-producer of CosMODA, who also carries the legacy of her late husband, Mark Gruenwald, the renowned author and editor from the Marvel Universe. Together with Daniel Hort, the executive producer and co-creator of CosMODA’s innovative cosplay runway, they meticulously curated a mesmerizing presentation at New York Fashion Week. Their collaborative endeavor brought to the forefront the breathtaking “Empress Seraphina” ballgown, a bespoke creation inspired by the Marvel Comics character Nighthawk and commissioned from the esteemed Re’Malhi Haute Couture. This extraordinary display masterfully merged the worlds of luxury couture with the vibrant energy of pop culture and comics, creating a truly dazzling crossover spectacle.
In her capacity as an international brand ambassador for a select portfolio of luxury brands, most notably Re’Malhi Haute Couture, Dr. Konopka has played a pivotal role in bringing the award-winning designs of Renuka Malhi to a global audience. Featured prominently in prestigious publications such as British Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar Bride, Re’Malhi’s creations embody intricate craftsmanship and a deeply empowering ethos, which Dr. Konopka eloquently embodies. From red-carpet-ready statement gowns to exquisitely tailored bespoke pieces, her ongoing partnership with Re’Malhi celebrates the unique individuality and inherent grace of each wearer on a worldwide stage. Notably, Re’Malhi’s stunning ball gown took center stage on the runway of New York Fashion Week on February 8th, 2025, as it was elegantly showcased by Dr. Jessica Konopka herself, further solidifying her influence and impeccable style within the high-fashion realm.
Dr. Konopka has enhanced her artistic collaborations through a partnership with luxury footwear designer John Ashford of Authentic by John Ashford. She has showcased his designs at the New York Fashion Week Authentic by John Ashford Luxury Collection presentation. Their collaboration culminated in an Art Deco-inspired photoshoot at the Plaza Hotel in New York City, announcing a future partnership and new collection. This presentation featured Ashford’s sculptural stilettos and statement footwear complementing Re’Malhi’s avant-garde couture. A photographic preview, debuting in Hollywood LA, presented Dr. Konopka in a Nighthawk-inspired modern Victorian Satin Corset, Chanel-print black checkered leather pants, and John Ashford’s jewel-encrusted stilettos, reflecting a luxury aesthetic and empowerment influenced by the Marvel Universe character created by Catherine Schuller’s husband, Mark Gruenwald. This collaborative design project has merged the realms of haute couture and comics.
This fall, Dr. Konopka and Catherine Schuller will unveil a “Trifecta in Fashion” at New York Fashion Week, uniting three empowering lines: Renuka Malhi’s luxurious suits and evening wear, John Ashford’s shoe designs, and Dr. Konopka’s jewelry line, crafted with ethnic artisans and inspired by modern heroic elements. Dr. Konopka’s upbringing, as the daughter of jewelers with a family atelier on Manhattan’s 6th Avenue, served as the inspiration for this collection. Co-produced by Catherine Schuller, the collection draws inspiration from the Marvel Universe Power Piece Collection, honoring her late husband Mark Gruenwald, creator of Captain America and Nighthawk. Schuller’s expertise in blending fantasy and fashion ensures a runway narrative that captivates a global audience. She is the creative visionary behind these projects that empower individuals in the fashion industry to pursue conscious creative expression.
Dr. Konopka, a former orthopedic surgeon who transitioned into aesthetics entrepreneurship, models and embodies the collection’s spirit of resilience and empowerment. Her journey—from doctor to violinist to luxury ambassador—mirrors the multifaceted nature of this collaboration and reflects her dedication to holistic wellbeing through a conscious and compassionate approach to Beauty, Fashion, and Aesthetics. The Trifecta celebrates strength and femininity, moving beyond mere fashion to become a movement that empowers individuals within the fashion industry to showcase their art in a luxurious way. This historic debut redefines elevated fashion, boldly celebrating elegance, strength, and cultural artistry. For more information, visit www…… and follow this groundbreaking event.
