Alexis mother, an artisan, inspired her to be an artist finding beauty in unique textures and color patterns.Alexis went on to graduate from the “The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and studied abroad in Firenze, Italy and London, England. She took her love of fashion to New York, working as a protégé to some of the top stylists there.

In 2008, she designed her first fashion collection which was a sophisticated yet edgy Victorian approach to women’s luxury apparel. “I love to make women feel and look great. I enjoy using my imagination as there are no limits to what inspires me.”

Alexis’s collections consist of a creative and sophisticated palette, strong foundations, soft feminine silhouettes and beautiful textures and colors. “I take great pride in my work and understand that being truly an exceptional Fashion Designer and Master Hairstylist requires more than the artistic talent and technique. It requires vision, patience, listening skills, professionalism and the love of people.
