About
An aspiring fashion designer focused on luxury, eclecticism, and storytelling, creating worlds and characters for collections and bringing them to life through draping and deconstruction. Originally born in Caracas, Venezuela, I moved to Miami, Florida, at the age of 10 and haven't been back since. As a designer, I like to think about my background and the cultures I've been exposed to throughout my life as points of reference for collections. Delving deeper, my collections can be a way for me to express pent-up feelings, and creating garments that tell those emotions and stories provide a cathartic experience for both myself and those who connect with my designs. With my garments, I hope to be able to blur the line between art and clothing. I'm interested in seeing how far clothing can be taken to where it becomes an object of art as well as a wearable piece of clothing.
This collection immerses you in a woman's journey through love and loss. It starts with her grappling with regret over unexpressed feelings. As she unravels the what-ifs, she writes detailed letters filled with undying love. Emotional experiences, including delusion and heartbreak, fuel her artistry. Repurposing garments and fabric manipulations become tangible representations of her emotional release. Her unique fashion pieces blur the lines between art, fashion, and personal expression. Bold fabric manipulations breathe life into her garments, symbolizing resilience and transforming pain into art. Each creation bears the marks of her emotional labor, merging fashion with profound introspection.
