Fashion – Portland

Mexican by birth, Portlander by choice and in love with both. Her fashion career started when she was 10 years old, after having rendered a dress her mother bought for her completely unrecognizable. Her career took a more formal approach studying fashion design in Guadalajara, Mexico. In 2002 life led her to Portland, Oregon where she has remained since. \"I have a passion for creating and bringing to life extraordinary clothing. Many of my pieces have the fortune of renewed life. I enjoy finding Vintage clothing and turning it into a new piece of art. I like to give emphasis on detail. From the fabric chosen for lining, to the matching of pattern on the seams, and creative use of sewing technique and design, for me attention to detail is the key.\"
