About me
FASHION IS ART!

I'm a fashion Designer for over 18 years, I lived in Paris around 4 years and worked as a Fashion Assistant. I created and launched "Machiçao Couture" in 1991 in Lima-Peru, as a concept for Up-Scale and Glamour clothing.
Our specialties include hand-made gowns and tailored suits for Men.
I will love to show that Charlotte is not New York, BUT, we have real talent here!
In the last years I meet many talented photographers, make-up artist and of course models in several countries, my goal was always to put together all this talent and show their work in the Industry.
