This section showcases my latest fashion collections, where I explore the relationship between culture, identity, and contemporary design. Each collection is conceived as a visual narrative, merging conceptual research with innovative silhouettes and materials. Through these projects, I seek to create garments that not only reflect personal vision but also engage in dialogue with the social and artistic context around me.
This collection was born from research on the history of labor exploitation in Puerto Rico’s sugar industry. Through silhouettes that reimagine the jíbaro attire from a contemporary perspective, the proposal aims to reframe cultural memory while questioning the power structures that shaped the island. Crafted within a visual language that blends tradition and modernity, the collection creates a dialogue between past and present, turning fashion into an act of resistance and reclamation.
A collection that employs the color red as a symbol of strength, resilience, and transformation within the Caribbean. Through deconstructed silhouettes and experimental details, the proposal explores how the body can become a canvas that reflects both vulnerability and the power of Caribbean identity. “Caribe encarnado” seeks to convey a sense of belonging and resilience, where fashion becomes a language of memory and future.
