J & R

One of my top NEW  favorite designers, they are an incredible team. 2 strong women capable of create simple piece with a special touch that make clothes shine in the runway or the street. 

The designers I am talking are named Julia and Renata, they live here in Guadalajara.

They studied fashion design at Guadalajara; and since 1993 in front of their own line, based on experimental materials, cuts and proportions, developed using principally traditional methods of Haute Couture, in a continuous search for new alternatives in the design. After winning their first prize in the contest Modapremio Mexico as illustrators, in 1994 they travelled to New York, where the stylist Patricia Field acquires its first collections to sell them in House of Field designs.

Julia and Renata are used by personalities from the music and film as Jessica Simpson, Winona Ryder, Ely Guerra and Alejandra Guzmán; in the delivery of MTV Latin America Awards and the Latin Grammy Awards, and in programs like "Fashionista" of MTV. In recent years they have been selected 2 of the top designers in Mexico; between 100 and 33 Mexicans with future, beside personalities of art, science, politics, cinema and sports. In Stockholm, Sweden, they  were invited along with 10 designers in the world by Absolut Vodka to design a limited edition inspired by the Famous Word bag. With his Lycractitud project, the Lycra brand sponsored Julia and Renata to promote design and create networks with Mexican textile manufacturers to work together. They got the Best runway project with the program “Elle México Diseña”
