Client Reviews
About
Eliana has been designing and sewing for over 14 years. She has worked in bridal couture, apparel product development, tailoring, and other fashion roles at Bridge & Burn, Spero Park, Dylan Parienty, and more. She has developed a deep love for fashion as an art form. She works with clients from all backgrounds, and has a particular love for working with queer + gender non-conforming clients. She works to ensure that clients of all body types feel excited and confident in their clothes- because everyone deserves to wear clothing that looks and feels awesome.
She has produced several fashion shows in support of local designers and artists, and has worked as a designer for shows of all sizes (from local house shows to Coachella). She jumps at the chance to connect with musical artists, event planners, fashionistas, and stylists interested in working together.
