Laura
Aparicio
Grown up in Colombia with a passion for fashion, Laura Aparicio already knew what her way would have been since she was in her teens. Today, she’s a daring fashion designer blessed with unique aesthetics and has been creating sophisticated womenswear clothing under her name since 2016 – her FW17 collection was presented during Milano’s Fashion Week.
At the age of 19, she moved to Milan with the aim of pursuing her dream career in the fashion industry. She graduated in Fashion Design from Istituto Marangoni Milano in 2013 and kicked off her career working on the production of several runway shows during Fashion Weeks before joining the creative team of Aquilano Rimondi Italian fashion house, which thing gave her the chance to gain an international perspective of fashion as she worked between Milano, Paris and Bogotá – her hometown.
Exploring fashion as a visual journey eventually set the tone for the launch of her personal fashion label, thanks to which Aparicio is now able to convey her personal sense of elegance by means of a unique style that bets on a new Practical-Timeless Code of silhouettes, originating from masculine traits and then adapted to feminine and contemporary women.
