Nadia Manjarrez
Nadia Manjarrez's journey into the world of fashion is as inspiring as her designs. Born and raised in Mexico, Nadia's passion for creating began at a young age, thanks to her mother, who taught her to sew at the age of six. Although she once dreamed of becoming an astronaut, her love for making doll clothes evolved into a full-fledged design career.
Returning to Mexico in 2020, Nadia began designing wedding gowns for friends in her parents' basement.
During the pandemic, she pivoted to making face masks, which grew into a business that supported local female sewers.Today, Nadia Manjarrez Studio Bridal offers versatile, modular, and customizable gowns, crafted by Mexican female heads of households. Her designs seamlessly transition brides from ceremony to reception, embodying elegance and empowerment. |
Naeem Khan
Naeem Khan's illustrious career is a testament to his mastery of blending traditional craftsmanship with modern design. Born in Mumbai, Khan was immersed in a world of culture, art, and textiles from a young age. His family's business of designing intricate clothing for Indian royalty greatly influenced his path. Moving to the United States as a teenager, Khan apprenticed with the legendary American designer Halston, where he learned the art of draping and cutting fabric.
This experience, combined with his family's expertise, shaped his unique design aesthetic.
