Project 1:Hybrid

House Wife

Collection For today's elegant and modern

woman, inspired by the aesthetics of

the fifties with eclectic and rocker

nuances; these characteristics prevail

with small touches of romance.

Intended to convey sweetness and

smoothness with different ranges of

white deriving to opal, highlighting

the female form in all its glory.

Deeply inspired in the TV series Mad

Men, giving me insight about women

from the fifties and the way that

different personalities were

manifested, and what kinds of

clothing they wore accordingly. I fell

in love with skirt length and the

elegance.

Project 2:

InkaGami

Inkagami, a dress made entirely of paper

using origami technique

Inspired by the Inca sun god Inti, this dress

represents the colorfulness of their culture.

Materials:

o color paper special for practicing

origami.

o Duplex card board

o Wire

o Cardboard, wide array of colors

o Glue

Inspired in the flag of Cusco that consists of

seven horizontal bands imitating the seven

colors of the rainbow.

I used the symbolism of the sun god “Inti” to

make a crown, and was inspired by the

“Uncu”, garment previous to the poncho,

to make a shoulder decoration.

Imitating the traditional use of petticoats I

took different colors of cardboard to design

the skirt with several layers just as they are

worn In the highlands of Peru.

Project 6: First Dress Made

• Motivated by Valentino’s

Blue Sapphire Collection

from fall 2013; inspired in

calm and serene portraits

of women by the Flemish

Old Masters. Took the

classic innocent style and

a fabric with a similar

print to develop my

dress.

Headdress inspired in Valentino

Haute Couture SS13

Valentino Collection Spring - Summer

2013 Haute Couture

The designers were inspired by the

Rome of their Memories & Memoirs,

creating more intimate sentiment

garments. The results were almost

aristocratic.

Slip dresses are still the basis of the

collection, as well as the simple

monochromatic details and white

sequined brocade.

Valentino duo gives every woman a

princess feeling, with a subtle and

important twist to everyday beauty.

Project 13: Sewing Workshop in the Peruvian Jungle

As part of a social program from Hunt Oil Peru, I am in charge of supervising the sewing workshop at the Native Communities of Shintuya, Diamante and Queros, located in the Peruvian jungle. I have been working on this project since the beginning, from signing the agreement with each community to coordinating the purchase of the sewing machines, fabrics and tools needed. I have personally travelled to every community to ensure the success of the workshop; this experience has given me the opportunity to work one on one with the women of the communities, enriching my understanding of their cultural values and their learning processes.

Project 14:

Pollera

Modification I bought this pollera, a traditional skirt

used mainly in the highlands of Latin

America, at the floating island of Uros

in Puno, Peru.

As the fitting is not perfect and makes

me look bulky it occurred to me to

modify it for a better fit; so I could be

able to use it in Lima at the office.
