My name is Nina Verklas, I am an emerging fashion designer in the south Florida area. My company name is Bambina By NV, "Bambina" meaning babygirl in Italian and "NV" for my name. I specialize in evening, ready-to-wear and costume design. I am most known for my sexy and edgy designs made from soft and wild prints. I love mixing fabrics and doing things beyond ordinary.
Things you should know about me before we work together:
I bring a great energy to every shoot
I am very passionate about my work
I am a bit weird, as most designers are
You will recognize me by my bow tie
I expect respect for my vision and I will give it back
Please give me at least 2 weeks notice before you'd like to shoot with me because I have a crazy busy schedule, but lets make it work:)
If you want me to travel I expect expenses to be paid
TF: for outstanding photographers on the level of the quality in my port
I am always looking for hair stylists and make up artists to join my team!!
Renting Bambina By NV designs:
please contact me via MM

I look forward to networking with you!!
