Ashley also opened up after the show about body confidence and revealed she had been more nervous about showing off the designs into which she had poured "blood, sweat and tears".
"I was thinking, 'Damn, I look good!'" she told Popsugar. "It was amazing to come out and be able to come out as a designer and have everybody just appreciate all the blood, sweat and tears that went into everything."
Ashley, who rose to fame for her model good looks and striking figure, admitted that she kept an important factor in mind when creating the clothes.
"To me, sexiness is about fit," she explained. "As long as it's fitting correctly, then I know that it's going to be the sexiest because first and foremost it's supportive."
