Orocéo Castro

Fashion – Melbourne

We are Paolo and Ginny Castro. We are siblings and we run the label Orocéo Castro. We were born in the Philippines, moved to Perth in 2004 and then to Melbourne in 2011. I (Paolo)am a qualified physio and have been for a number of years. However, I just cannot ignore the intense desire to design and make clothes that\'s why I moved to Melbourne and studied fashion at Melbourne Fashion Institute. My sister Ginny (who inspired me to pursue fashion and who has the most impeccable sense of style) and I started our label Orocéo Castro in 2014.Our aesthetic is classic with a modern twist and is unabashedly feminine. We like to incorporate traditional sewing techniques to our designs and tend to lean towards a polished look. We specialise in designing for the petite woman.
